Always follow your vet’s instructions precisely. Never exceed the prescribed dosage.
Gently restrain your dog, ensuring comfort and minimizing stress. A calm approach is key. Speak soothingly to your pet.
Clean the affected eye with a clean, damp cotton ball or gauze pad. Wipe gently from the inner to the outer corner.
Hold the dropper above the eye, about 1/2 inch away. Avoid touching the dropper tip to the eye or surrounding fur. This prevents contamination.
Squeeze a single drop into the lower eyelid pouch. Your vet will specify the correct number of drops per dose.
Gently close your dog’s eye for a few seconds, allowing the medication to distribute. You can gently massage the eyelids closed.
Observe your dog for any adverse reactions, such as redness, swelling, or excessive tearing. Contact your veterinarian immediately if you notice anything unusual.
Store the eye drops as directed on the label to maintain efficacy. Keep them away from children and pets when not in use. Discard any leftover medication after the prescribed period.
If you’re unsure about any aspect of administering the eye drops, consult your veterinarian or a veterinary technician for guidance.
