I just got back from the vet with cooper they did Schirmer Tear Test he failed his one eye was a 2 his other about a 5, she started him on cyclosporin 2x a day i need to have it compunded so i got both the drops and ointment, I will have him retested in 10 days, and see what heppens,, vet said i caught it way way early and usually when she sees it the dog is in way worse shape, she is confident that drops are all he will need for now but will see if the cylcosporin works or change to tacrolimus, his glands produce but just the way they should, and he is also draining properly she did a few stains as well to check his eyes. I hope that the drops work for him,,, thanks for your help and info ,, i also ordered the drops on amazon that you suggested. she said I can use them as needed, but wait atleast 15 min after the cyclosporin to use them,, how often do you use them is your dogs each day?
