Did it come up all of a sudden, like overnight or were her eyes red for a while and then it got worse? Actually, last Thursday morning, she woke up and her left eye was a little swollen and slightly pink. She sometimes looks like that anyway, but it got a little puffier as the day went on. Friday morning she woke up and her right eye matched her left and they had turned red and were much puffier.
Was the swelling there too when it came up or did it swell after she rubbed on it? It started out slightly puffy, but not nearly like it is now. It's gotten worse over the last few days and were at *the* worst with the 1st ointment.
Can you tell me what ointment they gave you the first time? Vetropolycin HC three times a day in combination with Benedryl 3 times a day.
What antibiotic she is on now? Clavamox ~1 tablet every 12 hrs with her meal
Is she rubbing the eye or scratching it? She was, but has been wearing the cone for the last 2 days. We tried taking it off last night to sleep and she was rubbing along our bed, so it went back on.
It kind of looks like pink eye, but is there a discharge from the eye either clear, yellow or green and when she sleeps and wakes up are her eye lids stuck together with mucas either wet or dry? During the day, her discharge is mostly clear...extra watery I guess you'd say. In the morning, she has large globs of white stuff in the corner of each eye, but she goes out to pee and comes back in and it's usually gone...she does lots of stretching and shaking her head in the morning because of the cone.
Thanks for your help!
