Is it safe to clean my dog's green eye discharge with salt water?

If it is just a saline eye wash than you can use it to clean her eyes. If she is having problems with her eyes than it would be a good idea to have a vet examine her to determine the cause. She may need medications to treat.

It sounds like Falkor may have an eye infection. You can gently clean the eye out with saline, but I would not use those medications you have on them. Legally, I cannot say if it's safe to use them on Falkor because doing so requires a veterinary client patient relationship which cannot be achieved via an internet forum. In addition, the experts cannot say for certain if a specific drug is safe for your dog. They could also be the wrong drug for his condition, and they could be expired. His eye does need to be examined by a vet, which can let you know if it's safe to use those medications, or can prescribe him new ones. I would have him seen by a vet right (and bring the meds with you), as any eye condition should be considered an emergency (leaving them untreated can lead to vision loss).

I'm not sure what disinfectant you are referring to exactly but i wouldn't recommend applying anything to Harley's eyes without having the eyes checked first. it's very likely to be a bacterial eye infection and for this type of infection you will need to use an antibiotic eye drops that you can get from your vet only.

Poor Blaze! I'm sorry to hear that he's having a problem with is eye. Squinting, excessive draining, and a "glazed" look can be caused by an eye infection, or by an injury to the eye such as a corneal scratch or ulcer. He will need an eye exam by your vet to diagnose the problem, and will probably need prescription meds to treat it effectively - so it's good that you're planning to take him in for a visit when you can. In the meantime, I would not recommend using any type of ointment or medication in th eye until you can see the vet to find out what's wrong - eyes are delicate, and you can accidentally make the problem worse by treating with something inappropriate. You can use plain saline eye wash to gently rinse his eye, if he'll let you, and use a warm washcloth or cotton ball to wipe away the discharge if it seems to be bothering him. This will not treat the underlying problem, but may help to make him a bit more comfortable until you are able to see the vet.

It sounds as Willow is suffering from an eye infection, it is relatively common in dogs. you will need to take her 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.

It sounds as Neah is suffering from an eye infection, it is relatively common in dogs. you will need to take her 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.

That is a lot of discharge in Razzy's eyes! Rinsing out his eyes will saline is a good idea. By salt water I assume thats what you mean. If it is not, do not use salt water in his eyes as this will cause more irritation. In general, if you see the discharge present for more than 3-5 days and the saline rinse is not making it better, then usually an antibiotic eye drop is needed. Sometimes dogs just get infections, sometimes it is related to allergies and other times it is related to a scratch on the cornea. The veterinarian may recommend to use a special dye in his eyes to look for any injuries to the cornea. Continue to rinse his eyes daily and protect them from scratching by using an elizabethan collar if Razzy is rubbing at them. Make an appointment with his veterinarian in the next few days. I hope this helps and please feel free to post any additional questions.
