My dog has a bad eye infection. Is this an emergency vet visit?

I see what you mean, Ace's eye looks really bad in the picture. It could be he has a severe eye infection or has injured his eye. Any eye problem is an emergency because leaving it untreated can lead to vision loss. Please take him into a vet immediately to get this diagnosed and treated. Best of luck.

Please do not use this or any other antibiotic that is not specifically meant for the treatment of eye infections. There may be chemicals in this that will damage the eye. Eye infections are always emergencies and need to be seen by a veterinarian right away as there is always the danger of loss of eye sight. Your veterinarian will thoroughly examine the eye with an ophthalmoscope, check for injuries to the cornea and corneal ulcers, signs of glaucoma (may measure intra-ocular pressure) and check for swelling and infection. Depending on the type of infection or condition he will determine the type of treatment. Please take Melodie to a veterinarian or Pet ER today.

I would have Sandra seen by a vet immediately. She could have allergies or an infection causing the itching. Any eyecondition should be considered an emergency, as leaving it untreated can lead to vision loss. The vet can diagnose what is causing Sandra's eye problem so she can be treated. Please take her into an ER vet or find a vet on call to see her ASAP.

It could be an eye infection or it could be Cage has injured his eye. Without seeing him in person, I can't say for certain. Any eye problem has to be checked out by a vet promptly as leaving it untreated can lead to vision loss.

Your poor puppy! The watery eyes can be indicative of an eye infection or allergies. The odor from her ears indicates an ear infection, which can be caused by yeast, bacteria, or ear mites. Any problem with the eyes should be considered an emergency because the eye is such a delicate and important structure. Leaving eye problems untreated can lead to vision loss. I recommend taking her into a vet today to have her eyes and ears examined, diagnosed, and treated. Please take her into an ER vet clinic; if there isn't one in your area, there will be a vet on call for emergencies. The information to reach that vet is found on a clinic's answering machine or website. Good luck, I hope this helps and happy new year!

You need to take Dutches into a vet immediately, as it sounds like there is blood in the discharge from her eyes. Any problem with the eyes is considered an emergency because it's such a delicate and important structure. Leaving it untreated can lead to vision loss. She could have injured her eye or may be suffering from a severe eye infection. The vet can diagnose the cause of her eye symptoms so it can be treated. I would take her into an ER vet or find a vet on call to see her now.

Oh no, poor Ogi! The thing is with eye problems is that they are considered an emergency. That's because the eye is such a delicate and important structure, and leaving them untreated can lead to vision loss. He really does need to see a vet as soon as possible, and typically there are vets on calls for emergencies over the weekend and for holidays. The information to reach that vet is found on a clinic's answering machine or website. I would take Ogi into a vet right away.
