My cat has red, swollen eyes, tearing, eye discharge, corneal swelling, and will not open its eyes
Red, swollen, tearing, closed eyes have many causes, usually irritants or infection (viral, bacterial, or mixed). Bacterial cases use neomycin eye drops; viral use acyclovir drops. Clean with pet eye wash first, use an Elizabethan collar, and if no improvement in 2-3 days see a vet.
My blue cat’s eyes are red inside and the pupil seems gone; how much does treatment cost?
Eye gone likely means a cloudy or blurred pupil; red eyes with cloudy pupils suggest keratitis, corneal sequestrum, uveitis, or cataracts/glaucoma causing lens clouding. Get an eye exam (ultrasound, pressure, fluorescein); basic checks cost about 300-600, treatment varies. If a vet visit is hard, try antibiotic and cornea-repair drops first.
Hello, the area around my dog’s eyes is brown, like dirt but it won’t wipe off. The eyes are red and swollen, and the dog keeps pawing at them.
Red, swollen eyes with brown discharge likely mean eye injury or infection—fights, cat scratches, bumps, foreign bodies—leading to conjunctivitis, keratitis or even eyeball necrosis. The photo shows unclear eye structure, possibly severe; see a vet soon. At home, fit a collar, rinse with saline and apply pet anti-inflammatory eye drops.
My cat’s eyes are a bit red, a bit cloudy and hard to open
Red, cloudy, hard-to-open eyes may be conjunctivitis or keratitis from irritation, allergy, bacteria or virus. If the cat is otherwise well, fit an Elizabethan collar, wipe discharge with saline, and apply antibiotic eye drops (e.g., neomycin sulfate) 3-5 times daily; keratitis needs recovery drops or artificial tears. If no improvement in 3-5 days, see a vet.
My dog suddenly stopped eating, is listless, and the whites of its eyes are a bit red. There is no veterinary hospital nearby—is there any medication I can give?
Not eating, low spirits and red eyes may indicate fever; take its temperature (adult rectal 37.5-39.2°C, puppy 38.5-39.5°C). If over 39.5°C it is a fever—cool with diluted alcohol on paw pads, belly and ears. If unvaccinated it may be distemper; test with a strip and use monoclonal antibody, interferon and serum plus amoxicillin-clavulanate and nerve-support vitamins.
My Mini Pinscher’s eyes have become cloudier than before, with red blood vessels, constant tearing, and a bluish film above the eye. I bought neomycin sulfate eye drops at the hospital—how is it now?
The dog may have keratitis and conjunctivitis. The cloudy bluish membrane is usually from corneal damage and keratitis; red vessels and tearing are from conjunctivitis. Seek veterinary care; if unavailable, rinse with 3% boric acid and apply antibiotic/corneal-repair drops 4 to 6 times daily.
Red, swollen eyes with hair loss around them—how to treat ‘one-eye cold’ (chlamydia conjunctivitis)?
In parrots, tearing, redness, and periorbital hair loss commonly indicate 'one-eye cold' (single-eye respiratory disease) from chlamydia infection, spreading via respiratory secretions and causing conjunctivitis, sneezing, and coughing. Use anti-inflammatory antibacterial eye drops 3 to 5 times daily plus chlamydia medication in water; severe cases need doxycycline. Isolate and disinfect.
My hamster has red discharge at the eye corner, a lot of it; eyes open fine, but the area around the eyes is red and swollen and often watery with pale orange tears
Red, abundant eye discharge with swollen lids in a hamster is likely eye inflammation. Clean with saline-soaked gauze, then apply pet anti-inflammatory eye drops 1 to 2 times daily, prevent scratching, and keep the cage clean with fresh bedding and little dust during treatment.
My cat’s eyes are red around the edges and it sometimes squints, but no runny nose, sneezing, or lethargy
Red eye rims with squinting may come from internal heat, eye inflammation, strong light, or allergy. With no external injury seen, it is likely dietary heat or internal inflammation, so give more water, light food, and clean discharge. Strong light also irritates; dim the area and use anti-inflammatory or anti-fatigue drops. If discharge, sneezing, or severe allergy appears, see a vet.
Eyes Are Red and Swollen, but Appetite Is Normal, the Cat Is Active, Nose Is Wet, No Fever
Red, swollen eyes with a wet nose are likely conjunctivitis from bacterial or viral infection. Clean the eye discharge and use a pet eye drop with neomycin or lysozyme, applying four to six times daily.
