With viral conjunctivitis, pink eye symptoms can last from one to two weeks and then will disappear on their own. Antibiotic eye drops do not cure viral conjunctivitis. Severe cases may last longer.

For bacterial conjunctivitis, a eye doctor will typically prescribe antibiotic eye drops to treat the infection.

Allergic conjunctivitis treatment often includes applying cool compresses to the eyes and using anti-allergy eye drops and cool artificial tears.
