My Pitbull has a red, swollen eye. What home remedies can I try?

Reign's eyes do look a little irritated to me. Potential causes include allergies, conjunctivitis, bacterial infection, blocked tear ducts, or dust getting in his eyes. If you have some saline for human eyes, you can use it to gently flush the eyes to remove any irritating debris. Continue to monitor him for 1-2 days, if it isn't better or if the redness gets worse, or if there is a yellow/white/green discharge, he may need to be seen by a vet for eye medications.

This is probably an allergic reaction due to an insect bite or a plant outside. those reactions tend to resolve within 48 hours without treatment. if the swelling becomes too large or if Bo is lethargic, take him to the vet in order to get an antihistamine injection.

Unfortunately it is illegal for me to recommend giving Cisco Benadry without seeing him in person. His eye is quite swollen, and this cannot be treated at home. Please take him into a vet immediately.

The eye must be checked immediately to make sure there is nothing wrong with it that requires immediate check up. A trauma, injury, acute inflammation/allergic reaction or infection could all be possible. Regarding the vomiting episode, I would recommend to withhold food for 12 hours and then start feeding her with a bland diet based in chicken and rice (boiled) in small portions every 6hours. Keep feeding her like that for 2days and then go back gradually to normal dietary regime.

Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Poor Bama! I am glad you have an appointment this week. I think Bama should have his eyes looked at today or tomorrow at the latest. It could just be allergies or conjunctivitis but he could have inflammation with in the eyes (uveitis) or scratches on his corneas. The squinting indicates pain. When it comes to eyes its best to have them looked at sooner than later. I hope this helps and i wish Bama the very best!

It appears he may have an entropion. This is where the eyelids roll inward so the hair and lashes can scratch the eye and cause irritation. This maybe secondary to confirmation or secondary from swelling. Your vet can check for an ulcer and hopefully prescribe anti inflammatory meds if there is not one. From there, they will check for dry eye and discuss surgery to fix the entropion to provide permanent relief

Hello. It appears that the upper eyelid is inflamed. This is a condition called blepharitis. It could be an allergic reaction to something in the park. You can apply warm compresses to the area alternating with cool compresses to help relieve the swelling. (3-4 times a day). If it has not improved in the next 24-48 hours, I would have your vet examine her and determine if further treatment is needed.
