They sell otc pink eye medication that can relieve the itching and redness..
Reply:pink eye is the same exact thing as a eye cold, if you keep your eye clean and hot or cold compress that will releive the pain. Also baby shampoo is totally tear free and if you use a little to clean your eye lighty the pink eye will go away, but it is always best to do this with medication from the doctors. I have 2 kids and have had countless animals and have used the baby shampoo on all of them and have used it in the health care field for 15 yrs. It sounds funny but it works.
Reply:cold objects

Reply:They sell pink eye drops over the counter...they are by Hylands. I get mine at Longs.
Reply:oh boy-I know what you're going through, I had the same problem a few months ago. What I did to aleviate some of the pain and redness is I kept applying eye drops to the affected eye to keep the eye moist, and I also avoided bright light-which can also affect the eye and make it feel worse. I would also apply a warm washcloth to your eye (the warmth will keep the eye moist, plus it'll feel a lot more soothing than a cold compress). However, I would get to the doctor ASAP. Hope you feel better...take care!
