Before finding this website, I put my little in a detox bath because my web searches for home remedies weren't turning anything up to treat his pink eye. I put ACV, Epsom salt, and baking soda in the bath and during the wash I had the idea to pour the water over his head and see how he responded to it getting into his eyes. His eye immediately started discharging and I felt like ACV was the answer.
A quick search told me I couldn't put it his eyes, but then I found this site and saw advice to dilute a teaspoon of ACV with a cup of water. I also found other options for treating the pink eye, so ultimately I steeped a bag of Black tea in a cup of distilled water, added a teaspoon of sea salt, and some honey, then added the teaspoon of ACV once the mixture cooled a bit.
I dipped cotton balls in the solution and wiped them over his eyes. MY SON'S EYE HAS PRETTY MUCH CLEARED UP WITHIN HOURS and after one treatment! We're going to do a couple more just to be sure we got it all, but I am in complete amazement. So grateful for this site and will be seeing what else I can learn!

When my 4th child got it 3 years ago, I used ACV and it cleared up in 48 hours. Yes, his eyes were all goopy and red. I just kept soaking a cotton ball in the stuff and rubbing it on his eyes every 2-3 hours. Then when me and three of the other kids got it, I used ACV for myself and got rid of it in 2 days. I used colloidal silver for the kids because they were complaining of the stinging with the ACV. The colloidal silver worked great too.
Now my oldest just got it in one eye, red and goopy and I started with black tea. I didn't see a big improvement through the day and I noticed his other eye starting to get red, so I switched to ACV. Twenty-four hours of starting ACV, the redness was almost gone. Next morning no redness. I'll continue to use it 3 times a day for the next 4-5 days just to make sure it's gone for good. Just one drop in each eye.
Now my 4th child has it (super-duper goopy and red within several hours)and I can't get him to do the ACV because of the stinging. So I'm wiping his eye with baby shampoo and flushing it out with black tea every hour. I'm also treating my 2nd and 3rd child with ACV 2x/day just to make sure they don't get pink eye. My 5th child is on antibiotics for an ear infection, so hopefully she won't get it.
Always works. Love it. I have used both Organic Unfiltered ACV and regular ACV. Both have worked the same for me.

I used about 1/2 a teaspoon of ACV in 3 oz of water. I used a q-tip to get a drop or two in at a time and reapplied about every hour. It burns a bit, but the sting goes away in about 5 seconds. If it hurts too much, just dilute your solution some more.
good luck.
