My 1 year old daughter has pink eye and was prescribed Vigamox. Within 4 hours after the first dose the redness and swelling were completely gone! The cost was originally $100 but THANK GOODNESS for my insurance..which in the end I only had to pay $30. I would highly recommend this medicine to anyone who has pink eye!(as long as you have good insurance of course)

I'm a 30 year old male and caught pink eye at a family party. It took around three days for my symptons to clear up but I also developed a bad rash on my ankles that may be vasculitis. I've could only find one other case of this online so I wanted to document it. If I'm unfortunate enough to get pink eye again I will be using a different medication.
