After a week of slightly itchy eyes, I seem to have gotten pink eye. Or at least my left eye is watering, gunky and slightly pink. Another trip to Walgreens for me.
ETA: Better in the morning. Still itchy, but not crusted over. Will wait until it interferes with vision before going for antibiotics.

And not to be an 'uncle hen' or anything, but just a quick look at the wikipedia entry for pink eye-
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conjunctivitis
and it looks like something that even a doctor would have to work at to diagnose because of the multiple possible causes for the same symptom. And as I seem to remember you already have said you know about the problems from inappropriate use of antibiotics, you already know they wouldn't do any good for a viral infection.
