my boy gets runny eyes every year. vet uaually gives him drops, they are not working so well this year. does anyone know i f it is ok to give brolene or goldeneye drops

I have the same problem and I use optrex on a regular basis and I have also used Brolene successfully! I make sure he always goes out in a fly net as it reduces the pollen, dust and wind that can get to him as well as the files irritating them. Obviously I am not a vet so I can only go from what results I have had and have no idea of long term damage?

thanks sarah, i think i will give it a go.

Hi, Pru,
You do not say what eye drops your vet prescribed. Have you asked him if he could give you different eye-drops or eye ontment, possibly one with a low dose of steroid?
Optrex and Brolen may help, and are unlikely to have any adverse effects, but I do think that your vet may be able to give your more assistance yet, if the worst comes to the worst by a referral to a veterinary ophthalmologist.
