itchyness, irritation to light, barely being able to open it in the morn, more eye crusty shit than normal, contagious (you'll probably eventually infect the other eye)

both my eyes were infected, PLUS i caught it whilst on my last pair of contacts so i had to wear glasses for the week it took for the eyedrops to work and the extra few days it took for my new contacts to come in. :rolleyes:

Fuck contacts. Glasses are a-ok.

God damn eye drops cost me 70 bucks and the bottle is about as tall as a thimble.

I should have just rubbed moldy bread in my eyes.

:rofl:

Damn man...Im suprised a admin does not ban you until this is healed up...you could infect all of us.

in all actuality I had it once before...talk about a pain in the ass. That bottle of anitbiotics is a killer for cost. I feel your pain man.

I heard you can make the itchyness go away if you rub your eyes with stinging nettles.

I use grandma's method: Boil egg, wrap it in towel, hold wrapped egg against the infected eye untill egg cools down. Do that every hour. Heat from egg will stop itchyness right away. Make sure not to touch other eye with your hands after you touch infected eye, untill you wash them with soap or you'll infect it. As strange as it sounds; this cures pink eye in 1-2 days, no pills/drops needed. Also make sure to cover eye when you go outside. Basicaly cold = pain, itchyness, long infection; heat = FTW

what a pain in the ass.

be a man.

douse your eyes with kerosene and then light them on fire.
