Joey had a corneal ulcer that started out with a squinting, they did the green dye test, and found the ulcer, the ointment cleared it up pretty fast, but he had to wear a cone to prevent him from scratching the area and re-injuring it. The can scratch can their eye or rub their faces too hard on carpet, and scratch the eye. I bought some Petsilk Topknot gel to keep those pesky hairs out of his eyes, don't use human products they aren't safe for dogs. I've had two kinds of eye ointments; the Gentak worked much faster than the Vetropolycin. You really need to have her wear a cone while it's healing.
