It sounds as AB is suffering from an eye infection, it is relatively common in dogs. you will need to take him to the vet the first chance you get, the vet will check the eyes, if it is indeed a simple eye infection your vet will prescribe an antibiotic eye drops that will probably solve the problem in no time.

You will have to use your best judgement on if Binx needs to see the vet tonight or if it can wait, since I am not able to evaluate the eye. If he has chronic eye infections, they may be viral, and the antibiotics may or may not be needed. Helping him keep it clean by using a warm wet washcloth until he sees the vet.

If the blood appears to be inside the eye itself, this is called hyphema - the most common cause is trauma, but it can also be caused by a severe eye infection, a bleeding disorder, or certain systemic illnesses such as lymphoma or FIP. If you think the blood may be trauma-related, I would recommend having her examined by a vet as soon as you can - eyes are very delicate, and many conditions can lead to vision loss or permanent damage if they are not treated promptly.

Hi there and thank you for using pet coach to address your concern. This eye infection appears to be quite severe. If the current treatment is not working well, it may be time to consider switching to a different antibiotic. If this is viral, an antiviral drug might be considered if this is bad enough. I hope this helps guide you in the right direction. Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns. Lysine for cats may help if this is viral as well as this will help shorten the duration of a viral herpes infection. Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns.

Your cat may have toothroot abscesses that broke through into the sinuses or are affecting her tear ducts. There may also be an inflammatory condition of the gland of the third eyelid. You need to make an appointment with your veterinarian for a hands-on exam.
