Maybe: Pinkeye is a lay term for any condition where the soft membranes of the inner eyelids or eye surface is irritated/inflamed. It can be triggered by infections by viruses or bacteria, but agents like chemicals, dust, eye makeup, etc. can all trigger a reaction by these tissues. If it triggers drainage it may be infected. If just irritated, a wash out with artificial tears may help it clear up.
