sorry forgot to mention they are eye drops that are called infected eyes that contain cloraphenicol anti-biotic

If the drops are not working you def. should see a doctor ASAP. Pink eye can usually be stopped with drops but since this isnt working a doctor could perscribe you an antibiotic.
Also I suggest not to make any home remedy because you do not want to infect the eye any more.

You don't say what types of drops you are taking. If you have an eye infection, over-the-counter drops will not help- you need antibiotic eye drops. But it is possible your condition could be caused by allergies, which would require a different kind of (prescription) eye drop to treat. That's as helpful as I can be without more info. I suggest you see a doctor.

Your eye doctor should provide saline solution and antibacterial drops and you should be keeping your eyes closed for a day. If you want to try it on your own, then purchase some natural lubricant tears or lubricating drops and keep your eyes closed for a day. Just hope they don't become infected. The more you open and close your eyes, the more irritation you will cause the eyes, thus prolonging their healing process.

you will need anitbiotic eye drops. Ask your pharmacist. It may be that you will need a prescription depending on where you live. Good luck!

I'd go see an optometrist.
