  Accutane is used to help with our skin problems, removing our pimples. However, sometimes accutane might be irritative to some people who have some allergic reactions, making their skin red, maybe some red eyes or watery eyes. But that does not equal eye infections because accutane generates no infections, it give rises to no bacteria.
