Not all “pink eye” is the same. Red eyes come in many forms. For example, you can have a red eye caused by an allergy. This would be treated differently from a red eye caused by a bacterial infection. Below is a simplified chart of the characteristics of different types of “pink eye.” Although the list is general in nature, it takes a professional, like the doctors at Natural VisionTM, to properly diagnose this condition.
Allergies:
Itchy, watery, and red, sometimes with white mucus discharge.
Yellow discharge, eyelids stuck together in the morning, red eyes.
