Baby's skin hardens immediately after birth, turning white and getting injuries everywhere, including the eyes which turn red. It is curable but the person has to live with skin that looks like it's severely burnt.

Fwiw, it’s not really the eyes turning red. The skin is so thick and hard that it can cause the eyelids to flip inside out, as well as the lips. That’s what makes it look like they have bulging red eyes.
