In the 1800s, treatment for pink eye (conjunctivitis) often involved the use of various herbal remedies, poultices, and washes made from solutions like chamomile or boric acid. Physicians might prescribe leeches or bloodletting, as it was a common practice at the time to balance bodily humors. Additionally, some treatments included the use of opium or Mercury, though these were not always effective and could be harmful. Overall, medical understanding was limited, leading to a wide range of unproven and sometimes dangerous treatments.
