Are my eyes going to stay this way?
I had bacterial pink eye for 3 weeks and my eyes have not been the same. Every night my eyes get this dry/ swollen feeling and I find it gets worse when looking at the computer or watching TV. Also when I wake up either in the middle of the night or in the morning I find it hard to open my eyes, I do not have crust keeping them together, its almost like my eye lids are really heavy. This was my first time getting pink eye so I do not know if this is normal. please help....

No, your eyes will not stay this way forever. The reason your eyes feel that way is because of the pink eye. I have had pink eye before and my eyes felt the exact same way for a while. In a way, your eyes are "weak" and may need time to heal. If they don't get better pretty soon, maybe see your doctor. The quickest way I found to fully have my eyes heal, is by getting lots of rest, and giving them time to heal. Good luck!!

It sounds like dry eye syndrome.
When we use a computer or watch t.v. we blink less, so our eyes become dry.
When our eyes are dry, they can irritate us, sometimes if feels like something is in the eye and because the eyes are irritated they can become pink. This is also why you are having problems while you are sleeping, your eyes are drying out.
You need to use artificial tears that are preservative free.
The problem will continue unless you treat it.
