I cut the hair around chewy's eyes. It took a LONG time for him to trust me and he moved all over the place. I would have to cut a little bit every day! If you chose to do this you want to get rounded scissors. You don't want anything sharp near his eye. If not there is hair gel that I have heard you can use. I was thinking about ordering this myself. I'll find the link and send it to you.
Here's a pics of Chewy's & Sadie's face so you can see their eyes.
The first one is of Sadie when we first got her before I cut the hair... I only cut a tiny bit and it made a big difference. Compare with her second pic.
