Answer:
That does not sound like pink eye, maybe allergies. Pink eye is usually accompanied by a green discharge from the corner of the eye.
All i know is its really contagious!
OK...first if it is infact pink eye you will need to get a perscription from a doctor.

Second...the white part of the eye would be pink (typically not always but usually).

Third...VERY CONTAGIOUS!!

Forth...Typically your eye will "matte" shut with pink eye.

If after 3 days it is not "matteing" shut I would think you hvae irritated it, gotten something in it or allergies.
its most likely NOT pink eye [yeah sigh of relief right?] but when you rubbed it when you woke up, do you think its possibly you might have broken a small bloodvessel in your eye? if so dont worry about it, that clears up in a few days / a week. from what i know, and my experience in the medical field, its not pink eye. your eye is probably just irritated, or youve broken a bloodvessel. get some eye drops [clear eyes, haha that guy is so sarcastic-sounding in the commercial] but yeah any kind of eye drops that reduce redness is good. . hope this helps. tenpoints? =]
pink eye feels like its dry %26 has grit in it, %26 when you wake up it would be crusty, %26 itches %26 watery, yes pink eye is contagious, i dont know about to cats though, you need an antibiotic for your eyes, go to the emergency room, you can make payments, better to be safe than sorry. its also known as conjuctiveitis.
you can't have pink eyes!

the only iris colors are green hazel blue and brown


no pink, DUMMY!
pink eye IS contagious..i had pink eye in one eye, rubbed the other eye and got it in BOTH eyes....it spreads very easily..

Some things you can do is make yourself tea...and use the teabag and place it on the corner of your eye.it helps relieve the itching and reduces any swelling if any. Green tea is usually the best...but black tea is normal too. When I had pink eye, my eyes were red, including the red veins through the white of the eye and felt swollen.everytime i woke up in the morning my eyes were "glued shut"...basically the crust that forms from pink eye or when anything gets in your eye actually "sealed" my eyes so in the morning i would have to wipe the "crust" away..so any of those syptoms i spoke about could indicate pink eye because that was a severe case i had.

There are eyedrops you can get from the doctor but you said you dont have anymore insurance...unless you call up and ask to see how much a charge would be.

Try to not share sunglasses with other people...I did and I got pink eye (when I was younger).make sure you wash your hands and what not...germs increase chances.

Allergies on the other hand can be to the point where you have itchy eyes like pink eye..try benadryl or allergy relief medicines.if it goes away - then you know its allergies.



I wish you luck and feel better! For more info check these sites out ..
