How can i get rid if a cold in my eye?

Conjunctivitis: Most likely viral conjunctivitis treated with artificial tears and otc drops such as ketotifen. Cautions are provided for frequent hand washing and to minimize contacts with others to keep from spreading to other people until it resolves. However, persistent unresolved conjunctivitis can be a symptom of bacterial infection or severe allergy and should be evaluated by an ophthalmologist.
