Help needed. Dog with cloudy eyes

Post by nwalabeagler »

My sons beagle got sick and we took her to the vet. I thought it was parvo. She has had shots thats just what it looked like to me. Instead it was a bad case of whipworms. She is now over the worms but her eyes are cloudy looking. Almost a gray blue looking color. The vet gave me some antibiotic ointment but I just don't know if that is gonna fix her. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks, Brett

how old is this dog. get some of the cateract eye drops from walmart give them every other day and in about a week you should see a huge difference.

I had a puppy with a scratched cornea and I swear she was going to loose that eye or be blind but, its amazing how quick the eye heals. Keep using the ointment and she'll be fine.

It was an antibiotic ointment that I got from the vet. It was Vetropolycin hc. Just put it in her eyes 2 times a day and they were much better the next day.
