What is the height of the child? Till her height is fine and she is otherwise growing well, one need not be too worried about the weight. Regarding the eyes, make sure she does not see too much computer or tv, wash eyes daly with cold water and ensure a healthy balanced diet. There is no need for additional vitamin supplements if her diet is fine.
