If it is only one eye, then it doesn't really sound like pink eye. Because of the highly contagious nature of it, it's almost impossible to not have it spread to your other eye. People tend to call any red eye "pink eye".
Anytime you have a red eye and there is a problem with vision, you must go to your optometrist ASAP! Call and they will usually work you right in to be seen. Tell your husband this does not follow the symptoms of pink eye and could be something very serious that could result if permanent vision loss. His optometrist needs to examine the eye under the slit lamp to find the source of the irritation.

Go to a pharmacy and see if you can get some boric acid. Take about a 1/4 tsp and disolve it into a shot glass of warm water. Mash it up and take a cotton ball and apply to eye. Works great.

Tell him not to touch you until he sees the Dr. Pink eye is contagious!
