How to protect your dog's eyes: good daily eye care

An animal's eyes largely reflect its state of health. So you should regularly check your dog's eyes. When a dog is infected with certain infectious diseases such as canine distemper, it often causes inflammation, redness and swelling of the eyes, with the eye sockets filled with purulent mucous secretions, and can even make the dog unable to open its eyes; at this point you need to strengthen treatment and care of the eyes. The best method is to dip a cotton ball in medical chloramphenicol eye drops and gently wipe from the inner corner of the eye outward until the area around the eye is wiped clean. Then instill an appropriate amount of eye drops into the dog's eyes to eliminate the inflammation. For certain breeds such as the Pekingese, Chihuahua, Shih Tzu and Poodle, including the Shar-Pei, because these dogs have shorter tear ducts or larger, protruding eyeballs and produce more tears, the large amount of tear fluid easily soils the coat, affecting the appearance of the dog's head and giving the dog an odor. For these dogs, you should pay more attention to protecting their eyes in daily life, wiping the eyes with chloramphenicol eye drops 2-3 times a week to keep the dog's eyes bright and attractive.
