Is It An Infection ?

Dear @shravs3,

It is unlikely that you got infected at the Opthalmologist's place. The signs you mentioned are more of an allergy/ conjunctivitis. Can you go back to your Opthalmologist for a check up? Till then I would suggest you to try oral antihistamine to get some relief.

Have you recently tried some new cosmetic or how old is your eye-makeup? Allergy can also happen due to dust, pollen and so on. Stay away from cosmetics till you feel better.Take care.

 

Allergy need not give a pink eye. Check even your bedding since you wake up with swollen eyelids. There is a remote chance of infection or allergy to some drops used at the clinic to dilate the pupil.You still have to go back to them since this is your first episode.

 

Ear infections may be caused by viruses or bacteria, and are more common in people with weakened immune systems. Ear infections in adults are typically caused by germs, such as viruses, a fungus, or bacteria. The way a person becomes infected will often determine the kind of infection they get.Oct 23, 2017

 

Looks like some form of allergy rather than infection.There can be some type of discharge in infection although it can happen in severe allergies too.
Do not run your eyes as it might further irritate the conjunctiva and cause redness.
May be over counter antihistamine eye drops(example olapatidine) or oral antihistamines will be helpful.Do not let the eye get dry.You can use eye drops like refresh tears for that.
