I have a cat and a dog; before I left the dog’s eyes were fine, but when I returned they were tearing and a bit swollen; not sure if the cat scratched it
Tearing and swelling likely mean conjunctivitis or keratitis, with light sensitivity, discharge, and redness; causes include foreign objects, entropion, a cat scratch, or rubbing. If appetite and spirits are normal, distemper is unlikely; use pet eye drops 4-6 times daily and a collar, or see a vet.

Infection depends on whether the dog is in the rabies phase; if not, the virus won't enter through closed eyes/ears. Rabies enters via bites/scratches or saliva on broken mucosa. Rinsing is good hygiene. A vaccinated, symptom-free dog is very unlikely to transmit—but consult a vet if unsure.
