A member asked:

Does getting semen in your eye cause pink eye?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Semen contact: With your eyes can definitely cause eye irritation but not an infection. This will lead to eye redness. However, unlike an actual eye infection, this should resolve pretty quickly after you irrigate your eye with water.
