Eye Care for pets
Tear-stain removers and gentle eye-cleaning products.
Over-the-counter eye products are for routine cleaning of healthy eyes. Eye problems progress quickly and can threaten sight, so anything beyond mild cosmetic staining belongs with a vet rather than a shelf product.
When to seek veterinary care
Eye injuries and sudden eye pain are urgent. Squinting, a cloudy eye, visible injury or sudden vision loss needs same-day veterinary attention.
If this is an emergency, contact your veterinarian or an emergency animal hospital now — do not wait, and do not buy a product first. In the US, ASPCA Animal Poison Control is available 24/7 on (888) 426-4435.
When to contact a veterinarian
- Squinting or holding an eye closed
- Cloudiness, redness or coloured discharge
- Any visible injury to the eye
