What Causes Redness And Floaters In The Eyes?
HI, I just started having issues with my eye this afternoon. It is red, sore, and I keep getting little floaties that obstruct my vision. I also get yellow gunk in my eye more frequently as the hours go by. Any idea what this is or what I can do about it?

Welcome to HCM portal.
You have two different issues involving two different regions of eye.One os outer layer where you have a pink eye,for which washing with plain water and antibiotic eye drops will be needed.Floaters are due to opacities in vitreous humour of eye which is inside,careful evaluation is needed to rule out any retinal pathology.
