Strep throat: Were you started on any antibiotics given the diagnosis? At any rate continue the course if you were prescribed an antibiotic, pink eye can occur with pharyngitis, either viral or bacterial, you may need eye drops added, kindly revisit your doctor for another review of your case, goodluck
