| just last week i went through a similar thing with my zowi. she was rubbing the top of her head and around her eyes, and had some minor hair loss in both places, so i took her to the vet that afternoon. as everyone else has stated, eye problems are an emergency! in zowi's case it was a slight skin infection and she had swelling around her eyes. no ulcers or scratches in her eyes, thank god. she was given an oral antibiotic (simplicef) and a triple antibiotic iontment with hydrocortisone salve that goes in both of her eyes. i would not attempt any kind of remedy at home for this that was not recommended by the dr because you could make it much worse. her visit and meds cost under $100. much better than having it get worse or losing sight! she has been on her meds for 6 days as of today and is doing much much better, no more rubbing or scratching.
