All three of our cats have been dealing with a URI. One of them developed bad eye irritation and our started her on meds. After a few days without improvement we took her to the emergency vet who switched the meds, checked for corneal damage, and sent her home in an E collar. She finished the five day course of antibiotics yesterday and is still on eye drops. Her eyes still look bad. We had been taking the collar off for a few minutes to clean it but she immediately starts rubbing and irritates the tissue around her eyes.
our regular vet can’t get her in for another week.We may take her back to the emergency vet tomorrow.
Why would her eyes still be such a mess after more than a week of treatment? The current eye ointment is neomycin and polymyxin B sulfates and dexamethasone. Is there anything else we should be doing? We’ve realized we can’t take the collar off at all, but she’s miserable.
