Weapy Eyes

Hi Guys

Monty seems to have weapy eyes and the whites seem to be blood shot all the time... is this normal?

No, he might have a low grade infection ( mild conjunctivitis), or just something irritating. Have you checked to make sure that the eyelashes all point outwards?

If his eyelashes are ok, try wiping his eyes with a damp, used tea bag (cooled, of course!). If that doesn't help within 48 hours a trip to the vet might be wise.

I have moved this post to Health Issues, you should get more views there.

as per Caryll but don't put off the vet if its on your mind , eyes are very sensitive , Tilly has had this problem a couple of times and they give some gel that goes onto the eye and it clears in no time

Moo had weepy eyes a while ago, tea bags where suggested but also salt water, I used the latter and it cleared up almost overnight, you can never be too carefull with eyes, Xx

Sometimes puppies have a problem with the lower lids curling in and the lower eyelashes cause irritation. Tyson had this problem and the vet would simply pluck out the offending hairs. Thankfully, the situation righted itself but when he did get weepy eyes, I wiped them regularly with some warm salt water (about a half a teaspoon in about 300ml of water. Wipe once with a swab from in to out and do this several times with new swabs each time. You may need to do this several times a day. If it does not clear up within a day or maximum two, get to the vet who may prescribe some ointment or antibiotics depending on the actual cause
