Thanks for your question. According to Zyrtec's drug information, stomach pain is a side effect of Zyrtec in children and tiredness can be a side effect on the drug in all people. It makes no mention of ocular side effects. You should contact your pediatrician to be sure that these symptoms are side effects and not something else entirely. I hope thi helps.
