Hi Doctor O,
To this day I still admire you and have the utmost respect for you as a talented and gifted ophthalmogosit. I had my LASIK surgery by you in 2000 and I still have perfect vision. I have been blessed that even when I will turn 45 tomorrow, I still don't need reading glasses.
May God continue to bless your wonderful hands that have given the miracle of sight to so many people.

Thanks again

This depends on the cause of pink eye.  This is a general term with many causes from infections, allergies to autoimmune diseases.  You should have your eyes checked by an ophthalmologist.
