its common for new borns to get this and the best thing is breast milk, but you do have to do it often so it will clear up, also when wiping make sure you wipe from in inside of the eye towards the out in one wipe, then get a new cotton ball etc if you have to do it again :)

The thing I read said to just squirt a few drops in their eyes and it can heal pink eye and all kind of eye infections.

Sounds gross, but I've heard if you put breast milk in their eye that it clears up almost instantly
