I've heard of a Sinus Infection causing an eye infection, but not Pink Eye. A co-worker has sinus infections often and last time had a very red/bloodshot eyes, but she did not have the pink eye virus.
Whenver it is something regarding my eyes or my kids eyes, I bring my boys to our local Eye Doctor not the pediatrician, etc. We've been misdiagnosed before and given some cruddy standard ointments for the eyes for Pink Eye that has literally made it 100 times worse. If you went to just a family doctor, I urge you to go to an Opthamologist and get a 2nd opinion, especially with your son and his young age.

Are you sure it isn't conjunctivitis? That's usually what comes from sinus infections. Totally different then pink eye.

Ya the first Doctor said Conjunctivits, along with Sinus infection. we went today and saw a childrens Doc that gave us another eye drop, the first was not doing anything and he now has an ear infection. and it's only Oct. I hope with in the next week he is feeling better!!!
