Take her to a doctor asap I have a friend who delayed treatment of her two year old, he is now 3.5 has and to have two surgerys to put tubes in his eye ducts, and there is still a possiblity of a significant sight loss as he gets older.

All from pink eye that turned into an infection

Oh and his eye seeps constantly and its really disgusting

My son has it right now.  You need the eye drops.  I had to get the expensive ones that make him not contagious the first day so he could go back to school...or I think it takes a few days.   But, its an infection...you cant mess with it...call the Dr and get the drops.  My Dr didn't have me come in...he just called in the prescription.

 Does that WORK?!  I just spent more than I would like to on a prescription...the Dr. said its an infection so we needed an antibiotic.  My son gets it often...so it adds up!

ETA:  I looked it up.  It says : Do not use if you are experiencing a thick, white yellow or green discharge that forms a crust on the eye lid.  My sons eye crusts up...so I guess it wouldn't work.  DANG!
