Overview

Pink eye (conjunctivitis) is inflammation or infection of the membrane lining the eyelid and white of the eye. It can be bacterial, viral, or allergic. Bacterial pink eye requires antibiotic eye drops. At Reddy Urgent Care, we confirm the type and start treatment the same day.

Symptoms We Treat

  • Red or pink discolouration of the white of the eye
  • Discharge from the eye (watery or thick and sticky)
  • Crusting around the eye on waking
  • Itchy or burning eyes
  • Sensitivity to light
  • Blurred vision
