pink eye

So,... the subject says it!
Gladly its not me, yet...
there was an outbreak at my kids school,.. took my kid to the doctor and so far only one of them has it...after 24 hours of medicine he should be Non-Contagious....

I asked the doctor : "Is it perfectly normal for me to have the overwhelming sensation of itchy eyes?"
doctor : "perfectly normal..." (procedes to scratch his eyes)
doctor " matter of fact after i treat kids for lice my hair itches for hours!"
