What Causes A Pink Eye?

First im 33 years old and male. So i have one eye that is red-pinkish. It gets less red-pinkish during the day but at night and when i wake up its more red-pinkish. There is no pain, no headache, no swelling of the eye or eyelid, no puss, no crustiness, no inability to open eye, no vision loss, no blurred vision, no rings of halos around lights, i don t see anything in it and it doesn t feel like anything is in my eye. Its been this way for about to 2 weeks.

Ophthalmologist 's  Response
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

This could be diffuse episcleritis but for a firm diagnosis I need to see the eye or you can have a slit lamp examination with your ophthalmologist. epsicleritis can cause painless redness . Do you have any joint pains? as it is associated with it . You can use some ketorolac eye drops three times for a week and it should clear up.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
