A member asked:

My daughter & i both woke up with redness in the inner corner of our eyes. hers is bright red mine is more pink. eyes are not crusty or irritated?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Could be allergic: If the crusting increases, or the eye is painful and draining, it may be a pink eye. only bacterial conjunctivitis needs treatment. You could try an OTC product called Zaditor (ketotifen) eye drops. If any worse it should be evaluated by a doctor.
