Thanks for your query at Chat Doctor! I am Infectious Disease Specialist! I went through your query! It is very unlikely that your eyes are infected with E. coli which is a bacterium. It probably could be due to viral infection which is more common (Adenovirus, etc.). Bacterial ones are due to chlamydia, mortadella, etc. You can take some topical antibiotics for eyes and rest your eyes. If there are signs of conjunctival hemorrhages and decrease in vision then consult an ophthalmologist for examination. In most cases such infection is benign and self limiting. So don't worry. Happy to take more queries! You can also write a review for me. If you would like some more information, I will be happy to provide. You can take a follow-up query. Take care!
