I've been on an oral antibiotic for 3 days and think I might have deleveloped pink eye (but didnt have symptoms when I went to the doctor). Do I need to go back to the doctor and get a new antibiotic (eye drops) or will this oral antibiotic for the sinus infection treat pink eye too?

The meds for sinusitis is not used for Pink eye…before you go back to the doc, call your pharmacy. There is a new OTC med (drops) for Pinkeye that works just as well as prescription drops.

:Yes you do but it sounds like you have allergies. I had the same things. Took Many prescribed eye drops before one Dr. gave me drops for allergies.
