Social distance: If you use a boric acid eyewash, be sure that you boil the water first to sterilize it and then dissolve the boric acid. Also, any pink eye that is not improving in 24-48 hours means you should see a physician. The best home remedy is prevention, and that means social distancing from family menbers who have the condition, hand washing, not sharing pillows, towels, etc.
