Question

Do i leave my eye open when i put a teabag on it for pink eye?

Answer 1

If you have pink eye, a tea bag isn't going to do the trick. You need to get an antibiotic ointment or an over-the-counter conjunctivitis medicine. Remember, pink eye is highly contagious so try not to touch your eye. Get rid of the tea bag and go to your local pharmacy and get some medication that will actually help.
