Bath time is a favorite part of most children’s days, when they may splash around, play, and have fun. But for one Illinois family, a harmless bath toy almost cost their little son his sight, resulting in a horrific ordeal that has left them desperate to warn other parents.
Eden Strong was giving her 2-year-old son Baylor his normal bath when she noticed his eye was inflamed.
She didn’t think much of it as a result of having water in his eye. However, after 12 hours, Baylor’s condition deteriorated significantly.
“His eye was protruding from his face,” Eden recounted in a viral Facebook post. “It was very obscured. He was running a raging fever.”
