Someone just told me that baby shampoo would help it go away.
My eye doc recommends it....
Mousie,
My kids used to have problems with their eyes and we would boil water and add a little Johnson & Johnson's baby shampoo [I'm sure other no tear formula would be ok] wait til the mix cools slightly, but when still a little warm use a q-tip along the eyelashes - should start with the non-effected eye if you want to do both, toss the tip and use another for the effected eye. This works well for many eye infections, but pink-eye does require an antibiotic ointment unfortunately.

good luck!! sounds like your arms are full!!!
