You really should see a doctor.  Pink eye, also called conjunctivitis, can be bacterial, viral, caused by irritants in the eye, caused by allergies.  In any case, it should be examined by a doctor and an appropriate medication or course of action should be prescribed.  Whomever has the pinkeye should be considered contagious and care should be taken so that person does not infect their other eye or other people around them.  If it is a child, then they may have to stay out of school for at least 24 hours after treatment has begun, possibly longer if it's of the viral kind.

Blepharitis, can be treated by care-full attention to hygiene of the eyes. Try using a Baby hair shampoo, mix approx. 1 teaspoon of shampoo with a half pint of fairly warm water, then take some cotton buds and dip them in the solution, wipe across the closed eyelid, from the nose out over and discard the cotton bud, use one cotton bud per wipe. repeat this 3 times on each eye, the condition should clear up in a few days. Continued eye hygiene is recommended to prevent recurrence.

I had that crap.  You have to use an antifungal creme on the area, keep it clean, wash your hands if you so much as think about touching.  It can take weeks to get rid of that blasted "bulls eye" mark.  Any antifungal will do.  I also used cortizone to reduce the swelling.  \n\nPatty "I feel your pain" Surrey

A lot of sleep, if you can't do that, use a cold eye mask in the morning and in the evening. A good eye cream also helps.

my sister had a similar problem a while back. it turned out to not be pink eye. it was an allergic reaction to the solution and contacts she was using. i would suggest calling your eye doctor and re-evaulating your choice in lenses.

you can try some eye drops...it will sting when you first use it, but will offer relief.  also, just get a cool pack, or a cool wet rag and turn the lights off and put it on your eyes....just take a deep breath and relax.  soon you will fall asleep and you will feel better.  your eyes will be puffy in the morning...cool cucumbers will help reduce the puffiness...also try something like preperation H under your eyes to reduce puffiness.  Sorry to hear you're having problems....we all go through it!  Just try and remember that things will get better...just relax and take a deep breath and remember the good things in your life.

there is no way to get out of not going to the doctor for this one, it is a very bad infection and can be cured by home remedies.   throw away your existing contacts and don't wear any until 1 week after they clear up. wash your hand constantly, don't rub, more than likely it will spread to the other eye

I know this sounds wierd but my mom always made me do this when I had a stye. Rub a gold ring (real gold) on the eye it always helped me

A stye is an infection of the follicle of your eyelash,you probably rubbed your eye with a nono-too -clean finger.\nCheck for the eyelash that is infected....it will be the most painful,get a pair of tweezers and pull it out!\nThen wash your entire face with warm water and soap,take 2 aspirin ----(they are anti-inflammatory and help to reduce the swelling) ---and go to sleep.\nGuaranteed to work in less than 36 hours.

ouch that isnt good.  Acupuncture could clear that out.  There are needles, (not in the duct) that can dislodge the obstruction.  Otherwise, you a heat compress on the eye 4 times a day.  You can use a de-shelled hardboiled egg or a soaked chamomille tea bag.

Try soaking chamomile tea bags in HOT water then put it on you're eye.   Also when it goes away throw away all old eye makeup or anything else that comes in contact with you're eyes to prevent spreading it.

you could have pink eye which makes it itch and watery the best think to do till you get to a doctor is put a warm wash cloth on it  but get to the doctor now !!!

i would be the person to ask. i had it 4 times last summer. first, it feels like theres something in it, like sand or dirt. then it starts to water uncontrollably. then it gets red and it burns. light hurts it ALOT, umm... a cold or warm wash cloth helps. the only way to tell if it is pink eye is if when you go to sleep and wake up, you can hardly open your eye. it gets stuck closed. theres gooey stuff that comes out. if you have it, i recommend putting a towel on your pillow and changing the towel, wash EVERYTHING you touch, or you will get it multiple times like me. sheets, DONT USE MAKEUP OR CONTACTS, dont wear the same clothes twice, and ifyou use eye drops, dont use them ever again. believe me i am an expert at this.

Definitely go see your doctor or eye doctor!  Swelling is a sign of inflammation or infection and probably needs to be treated.
