What Are the Most Common Symptoms of Pink Eye?

Pink eye (conjunctivitis) occurs when the membrane that lines the whites of the eyes and the inside of the eyelids becomes inflamed as a result of viruses, bacteria, allergies, or a foreign object in the eye. Symptoms can affect one or both eyes and may involve:

  • Redness
  • A gritty sensation
  • Itchiness
  • Frequent tearing
  • Discharge that can harden and form a crust overnight

While some cases of pink eye clear on their own, this isn’t always the case. Be sure to visit a reputable medical provider like PhysicianOne Urgent Care for treatment if you develop symptoms of pink eye or another eye infection.

Patient
Derby, CT

"Throughout the visit I felt like the staff really cared. The Doctor took his time talking with me about my symptoms, and I felt like he listened to all my concerns and took that into consideration when recommending the right treatment. Thank you!"

Patient
Hamden, CT

"I had to take my son in for an ear infection following a sudden change in temperament at daycare. He was inconsolable the entire car ride but when we got there and by the time we left this care facility he was back to his normal happy go lucky little two year old boy. I highly recommend PhysicianOne Urgent Care."

Patient
Westwood, MA

"I wanted to take a moment to thank you for the attention you gave me last week. My son was started on antibiotics and ear drops. Within 24 hours he began to feel better. The poor kid had been going to school in tears because he was afraid of missing any more days, but feeling (and looking) just awful! He's not been able to even think about lacrosse practice, but thanks to starting him on antibiotics, he was thrilled to return to practice today."
