Can I get Chlamydia Pinkeye again from using old eye drops?

I am currently on my last day of treatment for Chlam (Doxycycline), but yesterday I accidentally used an old bottle of eye drops and I have a habit of touching my eye when putting them in. My eye is still itchy and irritated, but not really red at all like full blown pink eye, but like the uncomfortable beginnings of it. Is it possible that I re-infected myself with chlamydia by using the eyedrops?

Yes. And toss your old mascara brushes etc. as well they can spread the infection.
Chlamydia pinkeye is rare, might talk to your doctor again to make sure the infection is finished.
Chlamydia pink eye
Pink eye due to infection with chlamydia is an uncommon form of bacterial pink eye in the U.S., but it is very common in Africa and Middle Eastern countries. It can cause pink eye in adults and neonates. It is a cause of pink eye in adolescents and adults that can be sexually transmitted.
Absolutely you may have re-infected yourself. get some eyewashes form the pharmacy and flush it, hopefully you can relief and it doesn’t go to the full blown infection again.
