I have A 2 day old calf that has bloodshot eyes and in one of his eyes there  is a white for and it's pretty cloudy. Could he have gotten pink eye already? What dosage of la 200 should I give and how much?
 
The bloodshot eyes are not uncommon in newborns especially if it the cow was pushing hard.  Do you mean there is a white film???  Shouldn't be pinkeye yet - a photo of the eye would really help. 
 
I had the white film in a calf's eyes's.  Called the vet and he said the calf probably didn't get good enough colostrum.  I checked the cow and she didn't have good milk.  I caught mine too late.
