How to Get Rid of Pink Eye Fast, Plus What Not to

Pink eye typically takes 1-3 weeks to clear up if viral, and 2-5 days if bacterial, though bacterial cases can be shortened with prescribed antibiotic eye drops.

Antibiotic eye drops are only effective for bacterial pink eye and will not help viral, allergic, or irritant causes of pink eye.

The condition is highly contagious and can spread as long as the eye appears pink and continues producing discharge, lasting up to 10 days for bacterial cases or around two weeks for viral cases.
