What Is Pink Eye?

Pink eye, or conjunctivitis, is an inflammation or infection of the thin, clear tissue that covers the white part of your eye.

In adults, it’s usually caused by a virus, while in children, it’s often due to bacteria. Pink eye can also result from allergies or irritants like smoke or dust.

What Are Pink Eye Symptoms?

Common symptoms of pink eye include:
• Redness in one or both eyes
• Watery or thick discharge (clear or yellowish)
• Irritation or burning sensation
• Itchiness or eye discomfort

iVisitDoc Care & Access

You can connect with an iVisitDoc healthcare provider online for fast, convenient pink eye care. Most cases can be diagnosed and treated virtually — no in-person visit needed.

At this time, Pay-per-Visit services are not billed through insurance. However, any medications prescribed may be covered by your insurance at the pharmacy.

If your provider determines your condition needs an in-person evaluation, you won’t be charged for that online visit, and we’ll guide you on next steps for care.

Yes — you can follow up with your provider if you have questions about your treatment plan, medication, or symptoms.

Your privacy is our priority. All information is protected under HIPAA, and iVisitDoc uses secure, encrypted technology to keep your health data safe and confidential.

About Children Care

Your child can be seen virtually for common, non-urgent conditions like pink eye, mild rashes, or cold symptoms. Our licensed providers will guide you through diagnosis and treatment — all from home.

Yes. A parent or legal guardian must be present for all Pay-per-Visit appointments involving children under 18.

Your child will be treated by a licensed iVisitDoc medical provider experienced in caring for children. Each visit follows the same standards of care as an in-office appointment.

Pink eye in kids often causes redness, watery or sticky discharge, itching, and mild swelling around the eyes. If you’re unsure, an iVisitDoc provider can confirm the diagnosis virtually.

Most children can return to school or daycare after 24 hours of starting treatment, once discharge and irritation have improved. Your provider will give specific guidance.

Some mild eye infections may clear up with time and proper hygiene, but treatment helps relieve symptoms faster and prevents spreading the infection.

You should seek care if your child has eye pain, vision changes, swelling, fever, or symptoms lasting more than a week. If symptoms worsen, an iVisitDoc provider can guide you on the next steps for in-person care.

About pink eye

An iVisitDoc provider can help determine the cause of your pink eye through a quick virtual consultation.

  • Viral pink eye often causes watery discharge and affects both eyes.

  • Bacterial pink eye usually leads to thicker, yellow or green discharge.

  • Allergic pink eye tends to cause intense itching and tearing, often with other allergy symptoms.

Red or irritated eyes can also be caused by dry eyes, styes, blepharitis, or eye strain. Because these symptoms can look similar, it’s best to consult a provider for an accurate diagnosis and proper treatment.
