Optimmune (0.2% Cyclosporine) Ophthalmic Ointment for Dogs, 3.5-g

This product costs quite a bit more at my vets office. Unfortunately, if I follow the instructions on the package, it does not even last 30 days. The dosage is for dogs of all sizes, regardless of size. The product itself is helping my fur-baby with her dry eyes and will be required lifelong. My girl is super cooperative with putting it in her eyes. I do wish a larger tube was available.

Noodles eyes were getting that awful build-up in the corners which would also result in sores developing there. They were very tender and I had to clean them at least 4 days out of the week. No prescription from the vet helped until one of them prescribed this stuff. Violá, problem solved by at least 90%. Minimum of build-up now, and the sores are 95% healed. Both dog and mom very happy!

This medication is absolutely great, it’s really cleared up my Pitbulls dry eye and helped her tremendously. However, I buy this medication on about a monthly basis and too much of it goes to waste. When you first get this tube, more than half of it is air and then as you’re using it the metal starts to bend/fold etc and cracks making the ointment come out in the middle of the tube and get wasted. Please work on this, this medication is far too expensive to be this much wasteful.

We took our Boston to an ophthalmologist for what appeared to be sticky discharge from both eyes. She determined it to be allergies and prescribed this product. Within 2 applications, most of the discharge had ceased. Very happy with product.

This eye med is essential for my dogs eye health for the long term. The tube is frustrating and wastes medication, therefore money. This medication is far too expensive to have to throw any away. When first opened half of the the tube is air. As you try to finish the tube, because it’s metal you can’t bend it to squeeze out the last few days worth. If you try too hard to squeeze out the last, you risk accidentally bumping your dog’s cornea. I have read many complaints for this exact issue on this page. My veterinarian agrees and is displeased with the dispensing method for this product too. This complaint is not about Chewy. Chewy is wonderful. This complaint is directed to Merck.

This product has made a big difference in my dog's eyes. They no longer appear to be a bother to her; less redness, less blinking, less dry. This came highly recommended by her Dr for on going care to keeping her eyes healthy.

i purchased this for eye treatment for my dog Finn as we were on a month of eye infections. found out he had dry eyes and we needed this to help balance the lack of moisture. since then Finn has passed away but from prostate cancer

I am in complete agreement with all of the negative reviews in regards to over--priced, tiny tubes that are half filled with air and split when trying to manipulate the tube to get the product out because after the first few applications the tube needs to be flattened as you would a tube of toothpaste the thin metal (?) splits and then has to be trickily manipulated to get the rest of the product out and into the pet's eye. I have to continue buying because my dog needs to be on this med for the rest of his life. Unfair pricing for shoddy 1/2 filled packages.

This works so great on my Cavalier’s eyes. Prevents the eyes from becoming irritated. Chewy makes it so easy .. shipped right to me rather than going to the vet to get it. Chewy even contacted my vet rather than me having to do it. Super convenient!

We are using Optimmune to reverse the dark film that is covering my senior's eyes. I've been told previously there is nothing you can do for it (pigmentary keratitis) but this is helping! So glad I have a different vet now... It just takes a long while for you to see results and many people give up when they don't see results quickly. It may not work for everyone, but it is worth a shot. Just wish it came in a dropper and larger package...
