My daughter was about 2 months old when my older daughters boyfriend came over with Pink Eye. The baby got it really bad , I hated to put drops in her eyes a friends Grandmother told me to squirt breast milk in her eyes . I thought it was worth trying , it couldn't hurt. By the evening it was gone. No puss , no redness or anything it didn't even come back. I was very happy that I didn't have to take her to the Dr. and also use medicine on her at such a young age.

A treatment for pink eye
Simply apply Vaseline on your eye. I had this problem before and i dont know if it cleans or anything however, what i do know is that it moisturizes your skin and easily removes the dead skin which in a matter of just one week can make the pink eye go away. I had it twice and all i did was wash then apply vaseline and it was gone.

pink eye remedy- as awfully painful as this sounds it works. squeeze (or have someone do it for you) lemon/ lime in your eye. i use key lime or mexican lime because thats what i have at home. squeeze a decent amount of juice in your eye and try not to rub your eye, it will itch. make sure you have a towl at hand to dab the eye. try to open your eye and look around. it will be difficult but do it to get the juice all up in there. once your able to open your eye without difficulty repeat the process. do this as soon as you get the eye infection. if you feel it coming on do it then too to prevent it. i would repeat the process one more time 12-24 hours later for good luck. if you dont like this idea dont do it. go to the doctor.

For pink eye - my son was on his third case of pink eye when a very old neighbor said to put his own urine in his eye. She said to do it overnight so he won't know and so it will be able to seep into the eye - but it has to be his pee. Well I couldn't wait for the night. So, I collected some of his pee (we were potty training anyway) and when he took his afternoon nap, I dropped a few drops into each eye. By the end of the day, his eyes had cleared. I gave him a Benadryl for the little bit of itching still there. And he had it only one time after that so we did the same thing. Worked fine.
