The treatment of dog eye keratitis requires comprehensive consideration of many aspects. The following are some treatment suggestions: Eliminate inflammation: Use 3% boric acid solution (or sterile saline) to rinse the affected eye to remove secretions from the canthus of the dog's eye. Then, instill antibiotic eye drops (or eye ointment) into the dog’s conjunctival sac. To prevent iris adhesion, 0.5% to 1% atropine sulfate can be used for eye drops, twice a day. Prevent corneal infection: After cleaning the sick eye, apply low-concentration antibiotic eye drops, such as 0.5~1% streptomycin, 0.25% chloramphenicol, 0.5% tetracycline, 0.5~1% neomycin, etc., and apply 4~ 6 times, 1~2 drops each time. For severe cases, you can use high-concentration eye drops, such as 40,000 units/ml penicillin, 5% streptomycin, etc., once every half hour, or apply antibiotic ointment.
Promote the absorption of corneal opacity: In order to reduce new blood vessels and control corneal opacity, and promote the absorption of corneal opacity, you can ask the patient Blow equal parts of calomel and powdered sugar into the eyes, once a day; or use 0.5% cortisone acetate solution to instill the eyes of the dog.
Surgical treatment: If your dog’s keratitis is severe, you may need to consider surgical treatment. When deciding whether to have surgery, it is best to seek the advice of your veterinarian first.
