i was concerned about it with dex as dee dee and demi do not get it so i went to an opthamologist to have his tear stain done and it was fine. She said yorkies have these real fine hairs in the inside corner of eyes and the goo attaches to it and it strings over the eye. She said do not use saline solution too much as it will mess with the natural tear production of the eye. She said to just use a warm wash cloth and wipe eyes and if they are swollen and red then use a warm compress on each eye for 5 minutes. Dry eye does run in this breed so if having eye issues a tear stain test is good to have done as they can go blind from dry eye and it is like having sand in their eye so very painful so the way i did not feel it was that is dex only rubbed his eye when it had goo in it other wise he did not bother it ever so i think if it was dry eye they would be rubbing their eyes all the time goo or not as it is painful. |
