Hello to everyone!

We have only had our sweet Chloe for 2 weeks and I was taking her into the vet this morning for shots. Usually she waits for me at the door while I carry a load of stuff to the car and then I come back for her. Well today is the day she chose to venture out and one of our cats had come into the garage and ended up pawing her in the eye. The vet said she had a "pretty good" corneal ulceration and she is now on antibiotic drops, corneal repair drops and atropin drops for pain. What I couldn't get from the vet is the prognosis on how these things heal and if she will retain her eyesight in that eye. Does anyone have any experience with corneal ulcers that can offer some advice (reassurance?)

Thanks!
