what i mean by pink is that my eye looks good to me
Answer:
Depends what environment your in, a dirty one is more likely to make your eye do that. i'm not a doctor though, go see one just to be safe.
If it's producing a yellowish discharge chances are it is infected. You probably have conjunctivitis, or "pink eye." A weeping eye is the tell tale sign, and left untreated is when it turns hot pink. No need to put off treatment.You will need antibiotic eye drops for that. Go to your doctor asap. Tell them over the phone that you think you have an infected eye, it's producing a yellowish discharge, and you need to be seen TODAY. It's very very contagious, so you need to wash your hands frequently, and dry them with paper towels. The bath towel you are using should be washed in bleach and hot water after each use. Do not share hand towels or washcloth with anyone, and change them daily, too. Change your pillow case every day also. Anything that is fabric that you come in contact with needs to be changed out daily, washed it hot water and bleach.You could easily damage your eyes by not getting medical attention. If you wear contact lenses, quit wearing them and get new lenses. The infection will linger in that pair of contacts so they must be thrown away. Your eye may look okay, but the inside of the lower lid is where you should focus your attention. Your doctor will know what it is for sure.If your doctor cannot work you in today, please go to a walk in clinic. They are open from like 8am to 8pm, 7 days a week. They take insurance, you don't need an appointment and they will have you in %26 out in half an hour.Get well soon. Don't touch that eye!
Pink eye is just a nickname for Conjunctivitis. and that is what it sounds like you have. You eye can look normal (not bloodshot) because you have a high irritation resistance. however the yellow puss discharge is highly contagious and you need to go to the doctor to get an antibiotic and an ointment to clear it up or you will be passing it back and forth with everyone you are around
