It depends on many things, so let's assume we are talking about bacterial conjunctivitis which is a common eye infection treated with antibiotic eye drops. If one takes the drops as directed for the length of time they are prescribed, the infection should be gone in 3 weeks and usually with no residual effects. It is usually gone in a week or so and many drops render the patient not contagious after only a day or so.

Does punctured eardrum belongs to temporary hearing loss or permenently deaf?

I have a punctured ear drum 2 days old. I have gone to the doctor and they stated that it is a temporary hearing loss. I still can't hear good, it feels like there is a plug in my ear. Guess it takes up to 2 to 3 weeks for it to start feeling normal again. The main concern was infections, get on an antibiotic asap. I have a punctured ear drum 2 days old.
