Pinkeye wont go away

2017-11-08 13:06:16
I was diagnosed with pinkeye about two weeks ago. I was prescribed Tobramycin Ophthalmic Solution. Although much of the redness and the pus went away, my eye is still mildly irritated and watery when I wake up in the mornings. I was only supposed to take the eyedrops for a week, should I keep taking them, see my doctor again, or wait and see.
