Eyedrops, soaks: The discomfort from pink eye is due to swelling of the eye lining similar to the swelling in the throat with a common cold. You can apply over the counter eye drops for soothing relief and you can apply cool soaks on a washcloth to relieve the eye. Pink eye runs a natural course and will go away with no need for antibiotics.
