What are the symptoms of pink eye?

​

Pink eye is a highly contagious infection, most often caused by a virus, that affects the conjunctiva, or the clear membrane that lines the eyelids and the white of the eye. As its name suggests, its tell-tale symptom is redness in one or both eyes. Some other possible symptoms of pink eye include:

​

• Eye swelling or itchiness

• Watery eyes

• Eye discharge and crusting when you wake up

• A gritty sensation in the eyes 

​

What does pink eye treatment involve?

​

Pink eye treatment will depend on its specific cause, but most patients are able to find relief from their symptoms and restore eye health by using medicated eye drops. We may also suggest that you change your pillow case, clean your glasses, replace eye makeup, and perform other sanitizing tasks to help clear the infection as quickly as possible.
