If you have pink eye first consult Ophthalmologist to rule out if it is infectious with discharge and stickiness and non infectious .If it is infectious use only Ciplox eye drops 4 times daily for 5 days and Refresh eye drops 4 times daily for 5 days and don't use dexamethasone combination it will flare up. If non infectious it has to be evaluated.
