If ulcers are not treated and do not heal properly, they can cause loss of vision or loss of the eye. The eye can blow out like a car tire.
Thus, it is very important to get to the vet immediately with any eye abnormalities. |
Does Max have dry eye? Lady does so we've had our share of ulcers. Fortunately, hers have always cleared up pretty quickly.
With or without dry eye, sometimes all it takes is a foreign particle like a speck of dirt to get in their eye and them rubbing it.
