Is this Pink Eye?

Hello there, I am 6 months pregnant, my throat has been hurting for 3-5 days now, and on top of that; my eyes are nearly swollen shut. I am concerned about this. I have no medical coverage at this time and I was wondering if you could help me know whether this is pink eye, or something else. My eye started with left eye pain with a mucuos discharge 2 days ago. Now both of my eyes are acutely swollen and there is fluid in them and also very painful to the touch. My face hurts. Please help. Here is a picture to show you.

Acute or chronic you need to see an EyeMD.  You are pregnant.

Hi Dr. I really cannot afford a doctor at this time. Could this just be an acute form of Pink eye?
Thank you

You have an eye infection.  You should see an EyeMD and pay cash for the exam.
