Correct Answer is C

Explanation

A. Staying home for 2 weeks is excessive; typically, 24 to 48 hours of antimicrobial therapy is enough before the child is no longer contagious.

B. While discharge is a sign of infection, the child can often return to school after receiving treatment for 24 to 48 hours.

C. This is correct. Bacterial conjunctivitis is contagious, and children should stay home until they've been on antibiotics for 24 to 48 hours to reduce transmission.

D. This is incorrect; the child should stay home for 24 to 48 hours after starting treatment, as they can still be contagious during that time.

A. Place the patch on the right eye for several hours daily B. Place the patch on the left eye for several hours daily C. Place the patch on the right eye for one hour daily D. Alternate the patch from the right to the left eye hourly

Correct Answer is B

Explanation

A. Place the patch on the right eye for several hours daily would not be effective for treating amblyopia. The goal of patching is to encourage the use of the weaker (lazy) eye, so the good eye (left) must be patched.

B. Place the patch on the left eye for several hours daily is the correct approach to treat amblyopia, as it forces the right (weaker) eye to work and improve visual acuity.

C. Place the patch on the right eye for one hour daily would not effectively treat the amblyopia in the left eye, as it focuses on the wrong eye.

D. Alternate the patch from the right to the left eye hourly is not typically done. Consistent patching of the stronger (left) eye is recommended.
