Could an eye infection, such as pink eye, do harm to new silicone breast implants?

You would need to get the eyes treated for infection, but it is not possible of the infection to travel through the blood stream to the breasts during the surgery.

Thank you for the question. Most instances of pink-eye are viral in nature and should not cause a problem with implants, even though they can be quite contagious. If you have having eye problems, you should see your regular doctor to have it evaluated and treated and make sure it is not something else. That being said, if you are concerned about your implants, you can always contact your plastic surgeon for an evaluation.Best of luck!

Thanks for your inquiry.  Pink eye is a viral cojunctivitis, not a bacterial infection.  It travels from person to person and is highly contagious.  I do not know if it would be a threat to your implant per se.  Probably need to speak to your surgeon. Good Luck.
