"Could it be conjunctivitis if my daughter had a slightly watery eye at daycare on Friday?"

Based on the symptoms described, it is possible that your daughter has a bacterial conjunctivitis. This condition usually resolves on its own with cold compresses applied several times a day. Antibiotic eye drops are sometimes recommended to prevent the spread of infection, but they may not always be necessary. Artificial tears can help with any dryness or itching she may be experiencing. It's best to consult with a pharmacist or healthcare provider for guidance on treatment.
