Should I Go to Work With Pink Eye?
Going to work with pink eye can be reasonable if the cause is non-contagious, symptoms are mild, and your job involves little close contact. However, thick discharge, fever, significant pain, vision changes, or work in health care, food service, or child care are strong reasons to stay home and consult a clinician. The right choice depends on the type of conjunctivitis, your duties, and your employer’s sick-leave policy.
