My 4 year olds eyes are really red. he says they aren't bothering him but i'm concerned is pink eye. what should i do?

Would need to see: pink eye is a clinical diagnosis and while explaining the appearance of the eyes can sometimes work, having a doctor look at your son's eyes would be able to make the diagnosis. You may be able to consult with a doctor through healthtap for a live chat or you can see your pediatrician. There are treatments available for some forms of pink eye.
