What Causes Redness In The Eyes?

My friend has redness in both eyes. He was told he has pink eye and given drops to put in every 6 hours. It has been 5 days and both eyes are still bloodshot red. How nlong does a bad case of pink eye take to heal. Maybe he doesn t have pink eye at all??? Your suggestions Thanks Kevin
