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.
