Pink eye question

DH woke up this morning with pink eye. Ds2 had it 2 weeks ago and ds1 woke up with crust around his eye but once I cleaned it it never crushed again and his actual eye ball isn't red. Do you think its pink Eye? Should I take him to the dr to get drops?

Pink eye question

DS1 might have conjunctivitis, which usually comes with pink eye but not always. Is he itching his eyes a lot? If not I would watch him for now and see of the crusties come back or his eye itself gets pink. Also, obviously make sure dh washes his hands a lot and stays away from DS1 until he is on antibiotic drops for at least 24 hours.

Ditto. And the eyeball isn't always red or pink, despite the name! Both my boys had it a couple months ago, and neither one of them ever had any redness in the eyeball.
