What Causes Red, Swollen Eyes in Dogs
A healthy dog's eyes are clear and clean, so red, swollen, crusty eyes signal a problem. Causes range from harmless exercise flush and diet to trapped debris, infection, fight injuries, or tear-gland inflammation—only the last few need a vet's prescription.
Why Does My Cat Keep Tearing Up? Causes and What to Do
Constant tearing in cats is rarely about emotion — it usually points to dust, diet, infection, or breed anatomy. Flat-faced cats are built to tear more, and most cases respond to gentle cleaning, but persistent redness or discharge means a vet visit.
Why Does My Cat Have Something Clear in Its Eye?
A clear or cloudy film over a cat's eye is not normal and often points to glaucoma, cataracts or keratitis. Once an eye condition is confirmed, prompt veterinary treatment protects the cat's sight. Early exams and clean, careful home care make the difference.
What to Do When Your Cat Sneezes Blood
Blood in a cat's sneeze points to parasites or feline rhinotracheitis (cat flu) — both need a vet check. Deworm for parasites; for rhinotracheitis, treat the virus with eye drops and vet-prescribed medication plus immune support.
Why Your Dog’s Eyes Are Red with Crusty Discharge
Red eyes with crusty discharge signal eye disease — keratitis, corneal ulcer, cataract, or entropion. Each looks different; most respond to a saline rinse or antibacterial drops, but entropion needs surgery to stop relapse.
Will a Cat Die from Pus-Like Eye Discharge?
Pus-like eye discharge itself isn't fatal, but the diseases behind it can be — feline distemper (panleukopenia), rhinotracheitis (cat flu), and calicivirus all produce crusty, pus-like eye discharge. The underlying illness, not the eyes, is the real danger.
My kitten’s eyes are discharging pus and it can’t keep them open. What eye drop should I use? (First time dealing with this; the kitten has no other symptoms.)
Eye discharge with pus in a kitten is usually a bacterial eye infection or bacterial conjunctivitis, caused by contagion, overlong eyelashes, injury, or bacteria. Clean the eyes with a gentle saline solution, then apply a vet-recommended pet eye drop several times a day.
