I have had pink eye 3 times in the past few months. i am wondering why it keeps coming back time and time again.

Contacts/allergies?: Most recurrences are related to low grade viral or untreated bacterial eye infections. Certainly other issues which can cause conjunctivitis would be overuse of eye drops, contact lenses and seasonal allergies. Consult your ophthalmologist.
