Millions of Americans, children, and adults have pink eyes every year. The disease is common in children for several reasons. Pink eyes are usually caused by contact with hands, and children (especially younger ones) are more likely to rub their eyes and not wash their hands properly. Infectious conjunctivitis spreads easily in environments where there are children nearby, such as at school or daycare. Maybe your eyes itch and start to turn pink. Could it be an infection? Your doctor can make the last call, but there are important signals to watch out for and that can give you some clues.
