C.J. is a 27-year-old male who started to present crusty and yellowish discharge on his eyes 24 hours ago. In the beginning, he thought that by washing his eyes vigorously the discharge would go away but on the contrary, it increased causing blurry vision, especially in the morning. Once he clears his eyes of the sticky discharge his visual acuity is normal again. Also, he has been feeling a throbbing pain in his left ear. His eyes became red today, so he decided to consult to get evaluated. On his physical assessment, you found a yellowish discharge and bilateral conjunctival erythema. His throat and lungs are normal, and his left ear canal is within normal limits, but the tympanic membrane is opaque, bulging, and red.
