My otherhalf has got it, and he's a whimp and wont put any eye drops in his eye, all he'll use is hot water!! Is there anything else apart from eye drops that can be used to treat it? Thanks

Thank you
I really need to learn to look at that site first!
nasty, id recommened keeping your distance until a couple of days after its cleared
So moral of that story. Don't be a wimp, get it sorted as it will be better in the long run.
Doctors don't give out drugs for the good of their health you know...
Your eyesight is not something to be taken for granted.
I got bacterial conjuctivitus so i felt like i had flu for about a week (still whist camping), and i had to use salt eye baths twice a day and antibacterial drops every 2 hours.
Lol, he hasnt been to the doctors yet!
:yes:
If he doesn't go it will get worse. You need drugs to clear up conjunctivitus.
He will most likely be given cream. The cream is a pain in the ass to use, but it's better than not being able to see.
Also if he is merrily splashing water over his eyes, then he's probably cross-infecting them, which means he will get worse.
