A member asked:
Is there any over the counter eye drops for pink eye? or anything i can get at a drug store to make it go away?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
"Pink eye": There are many causes for a red eye, including trauma, eye disease ( glaucoma, retinal detachment), allergies, and infection (bacterial or viral). Treatment depends on the cause and your primary care doctor can help you sort this out. Over the counter allergy treatments are available, but most causes require Rx, intervention or observation.
