Pink eye in newborns
Pink eye in newborns can be caused by an infection, irritation, or a blocked tear duct. A newborn baby who has symptoms of pink eye in the first two weeks after birth should see a healthcare provider.

Newborn pink eye caused by sexually transmitted infections, like gonorrhea or chlamydia, can be very serious. Visit your healthcare provider for testing and treatment if you are pregnant and think you may have a sexually transmitted infection. If you don't know whether you have a sexually transmitted infection but have recently given birth and your newborn shows signs of pink eye, visit your child's healthcare provider right away.
