Swollen eye lid ?
Submitted by kreale23 on April 21, 2010 - 12:08amJust went for a short walk and since we've been back, I noticed that Zoey's right eye is mostly closed. My hubby & I tried to wipe it to make sure nothing was in it but we can't find anything. Should we give her eye drops? It doesn't seem to be bothering her too bad, and she'll probably have her eyes closed for most of the day anyway (she looooooves to sleep!) It just appears that her bottom lid is swollen. Even now as I watch her sometimes she'll open it fine...other times, not so fine.
I don't think it's needing vet attention at this time - just wondering what I can do to help it. I'll keep watching for any changes - I'm hoping she didn't get stung while we were out!! I didn't notice anything during the walk...
Thanks!

Remember that you can always use artificial tears
to flush an eye if you think that a tiny bit of dirt may be picked up on a walk or when the wind is blowing, etc. Its very safe to use...just be sure that when you are wiping away any excess tearing/moisture, that you blot the eye and don't rub any tissue or anything abrasive on the cornea.
