Hello,
It seems from the history that you are having pink eye associated with blocked ears and hearing loss.
Pink eye is because of conjunctivitis. Blocked ears and hearing loss can be because of eustachian tube blockage. This may be because of conjunctivitis being associated with respiratory tract infection. Hence you require to consult doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.
Thank you
