 Dry Eye expensive medicine!
Hi my little guy, Rickie, has dry eyes. He barely produces tears as his year ducts are tinyyyy.
I currently buy drops from the vet. The medication is Tacrolimus eye drops for dogs. The cost is about 85.00 dollars every 6-7 weeks. A very good vet said he will need this medication his entire life, but the purpose is to stimulate tear production. I don't think it is working. I also use Genteal eye ointment. Should I keep buying the medication or buy only over the counter ointments. I know I have to ask my vet first, but I would appreciate any good advice on excellent over the counter meds for dry eyes.
Thank you so much!
