Health & WellbeingHi so my dog got into some kind of cleaning supply not sure what. She keeps shutting her eyes- I rinsed her face with water and gave her a bath- I’m concerned and hoping there’s something I can go at home to help he and make sure she’s ok
Hello and thank you for reaching out to Boop by Petco. I'm sorry to hear that your pet may have gotten into something. Since she is keeping her eyes shut, I am worried that she has injuries to her corneas, or the front part of the eye. Cleaning solutions can be toxic to the cells of the cornea and cause ulceration, which is very painful. I recommend bringing her to your veterinarian as soon as you can have her seen to have her eyes examined. Your vet may prescribe pain medications as well as topical eye antibiotics to reduce the risk of infection and permanent damage to the eyes. In the meantime, you can try to keep rinsing her eyes with eye wash that you can purchase over the counter from a human pharmacy. I hope this is helpful!
