Recently, I had an infection in my eyes though I'm not sure which as the doctor didn't specify. (A run down of the symptoms was waking up to my eyes being bloodshot-- the whites were pink, and a darker patch of red on the corner of one eye. No stinging, burning, pussing. Vision was the same as it always was, no blurring or anything. Sorry if this is very vague and sounds like it could be anything!) So the doctor prescribed me 2 sets of drops and a night time gel. A week later, the infection has cleared up (as stated by the doctor) and I stopped using the medicated drops. However, I've had some pinkness to my eyes that have not gone away yet. The doctor said I have extremely dry eyes now and have started using Blink and Optive brand eyedrops. My eyes have been veiny for a week and sometimes theres slight cloudiness to them (the eyes, not my vision). Could it still be the dry eye? This spanned over the course of 3 weeks.
***Note, I am a contact lens wearer but have stopped wearing them since the infection started.
