If your eye or eyes are red with creamy white or yellow stuff in the corners, and your eyelashes are getting matted, you probably have pinkeye.

Pinkeye is highly contagious, so don't go to work. Call your doctor to determine whether you need an antibiotic for your infected eyes. Pinkeye can be viral or bacterial—antibiotics can help if it's bacterial. Make sure to wash your hands frequently to avoid infecting anyone else.
