You might want to up the value of the treats that you are giving her if you are just giving kibble. Joey gets miniscule pieces of cheese or whatever meat we have leftover when I need "high value" treats.

I agree with the above advise. Call her to you using her name, give a treat and release. Repeat many, many times. If she doesn't come when you call her, begin the exercise when she is in the same room with you and can see the treat. Gradually extend the distance that you are calling her from.

You might also halt the eye-wiping until she is a bit more comfortable with you. When you resume it, give a tasty treat when you are finished to make the process more tolerable to her.
