One of the more common eye conditions that most people get at least once in their life is pink eye, which is frequently caused by an infection.

At Professional Family Eyecare, we know how disruptive pink eye can be, and we’ll give you prompt attention so you can get treatment right away.
What is Pink Eye?
Pink eye, or conjunctivitis, is a condition where the transparent membrane that lines the eyelid and eyeball (called the conjunctiva) becomes inflamed because the blood vessels become swollen and irritated. This condition is most frequently caused by a virus and is contagious. It’s important to avoid spreading pink eye, so those affected should wash their hands frequently, avoid sharing towels or cosmetics, and change their pillowcase often.
