Answer to Question 1

C
Response:
Pain is typical of hordeolum. Blepharitis has symptoms of redness, scaling, and edema but not pain.

Answer to Question 2

D
Response:
Promoting eye safety would be appropriate if the child had an eye injury. Using warm water to loosen crusts, educating the family about the disorder, and encouraging frequent hand-washing are interventions for infectious conjunctivitis.
