Space Chick Posted May 23, 2010 Share Posted May 23, 2010 Big Suze, my silkie, has a really bad eye. Its all weepy and crusty and she is keeping it closed. The vet is coming tomorrow, and I have been bathing it in boiled cooled water with cotton wool and have given her some nutri drops, but I was wondering if there was anything else I could do before the vet visit. Any thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chucky Mama Posted May 23, 2010 Share Posted May 23, 2010 Not really much more that you can do other than keeping it clean. You can use cold tea (no milk!) too. You are quite right to get it seen by a vet sooner rather than later Hope it's nothing too serious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clur Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 Dilys had the same thing and we bathed her eye in luke warm tea. We kept bathing it and it took a little while but she completely recovered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space Chick Posted May 24, 2010 Author Share Posted May 24, 2010 She has a nasty eye infection, she has drops to put in twice a day for a week, and I am to take her back if it doesn't get better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
