It could be that the tear duct is getting clogged. That happened sometimes with my girls at times. I used Trioptic S when any of my babies had a problem, and it cleared up the inflammation and the tear problems fairly quickly. It works great. It is a prescription, but I always had a tube on hand. My vet knew me well enough that I would be in with them if there were a probem, since I always took them more than just their yearly checkups. Therefore, medications like that he would let me have so that I could start right away the minute I saw a problem. In all of the years using it, it never caused a problem. I used it any time there was any redness or discharge from the eye. He also told me to use it in their eyes before a bath to protect them from the irritation from the water or shampoo, but mineral oil can do the same for that. |
