Can you have pink eye in just one eye???!


Question: I woke up with icky gunk all over my right eye. Its red. I think that its pink eye cuz my brother had it not too long ago but can you just get pink eye in one eye. My left eye isn't bad. Its just my right eye. I stayed home from school because my mom told me that I could be contagious and that I need to go to the doctor but can you really get pink eye in just one eye??

It commonly does occur in one eye only, but because it is contagious often spreads to the other eye or other people. Avoid using common towels and washcloths. Your doctor can prescribe antibiotic eye drops.

yes you can get it in just one eye

Yes you can,
but if you don't treat it quickly it will most likely spread to the other eye.
Good luck, and don't rub em it only makes it worse.

sure

Yes, you can have pink eye in just one eye. It is very contagious though, so be careful to not spread it to the other eye.

absolutely, yes. Be careful it can spread to the other eye as well
