Can you put regular eye drops in eyes for pinkeye ?!


Question: Can you put regular eye drops in eyes for pinkeye ?
I went to the dr. and just my right eye was infected and he gave me Vigamox. I take one drop each eye 3 times a day. It has now spread to both eyes. Is so bad and im trying to figure out other ways to sooth my eyes. Ive been taking advil it helps some and ive been placing a cold cloth on my eyes. It hurts so bad please any help can I use any other eye drops to sooth my eyes??

Answers:

You can put other drops in but it wont do anything unless your eyes are dry. You just have to wait for the infection to go away. I don't suggest the cold cloth method because the bacteria can transfer onto the cloth and then spread. Instead try putting some cold water in ur hand and then cupping your eyes.
