Conjunctivitis, also known as pink eye, is caused by an inflammation or infection of the transparent membrane that lines your eye. When small blood vessels in the conjunctiva become inflamed, they become more visible, causing redness.
The symptoms of conjunctivitis usually last a couple of weeks and will resolve themselves without medical intervention.
The most common symptoms of conjunctivitis are when the eye is:
Bloodshot
Burns or feels gritty
Produces pus that sticks to lashes
Itchy
Watery
If you notice the above symptoms, you should not wear contact lenses or eye makeup until your eyes are better.
In the majority of cases the conjunctivitis will resolve itself. We recommend you wash your hands regularly, not to share towels, and dispose of any eye makeup you've used recently.
If you feel you need further assistance, speak to your local pharmacist and they’ll be able to give you advice and suggest a course of action to help combat your symptoms.
