EYE HEALTH IN DOGS.
Eyes of the dog should be checked regularly as they are pointers to the state of health.Eye infections can be localized or it can be a spill over of a systemic infection.Eyes should be bright,clear ,clean and must not exhibit any discharges, must not be red or blood shoot.
Dogs sometimes present sleepy dust,which is simply dried mucus ,a natural protective secretion that keeps eyes clean.This is easily removed by using moist cotton balls.
The eye conditions include conjunctivitis, abscesses, pink eye,tumors, entropion and ectropion. Conjunctivitis is the most common,this is the inflammation of the eye's protective mucous membrane. The eye is usually red, swollen and with watery or mucoid discharges when its an irritation or allergy or trauma. When there is an infection ,the eyes are red,swollen and discharges become yellow to green.
Treatment; 1)clean the affected eye.with moist cotton.
2)note type of discharge.
3) apply an eye drop; that has anti inflammatory and antibiotic properties.
4) give vitamin c supplement and cool water.
5) prevent exposure to sun.
