Today, I woke up with pink eye. My mom tried to help by putting drops in. It started burning like hell; she didn't understand why. It turns out she was putting ear drops in my eye. FML

If this ever happens again, quickly put some eye drops in your ears.

Ear drops and eye drops are the EXACT SAME MEDICATION numb nuts. In fact, a few years ago, they listed both on the same bottle. The only reason they separated them was to make ear drops slightly stronger and to make obscene amounts of profit selling two types of meds instead of one.

Did your mom also fart on your pillowcase to give you pink eye too?

I had pink eye one time and my mom gave me the pink eye drops and it happened to have had mouth wash in it. I thought my eye melted.

Same thing happened to me OP. I had eye allergies as a kid and when I was in about the 5th grade my mom couldn't understand why I was screaming after she put them in. She had allergies too and later used them herself. She apologized haha

This has happened to me before. My mother told me to stop complaining when she did the eyedrops for me and that it was "normal" to have my eyes burning.
