My Maddie has had this terrible allergy in her eyes. Both of them. Scabs and bloody areas on her eyelid which put my beloved puppy on an antibiotic. Several months/years later what my vet prescribed was not working . She has a chronic allergy problem. But I did my research and found a product that is really right and working for her eyes.Tobramycin ophthalmic Solution. It is a prescription and Chewy.com pharmacist will contact your vet for an okay!’

So easy to administer
By Kate on Jun 17, 2019
My goldendoodle suffers from allergies and as a result has frequent eye infections. We have tried so many different antibiotics for her eyes and this has been the best BY FAR. It is so easy to administer. I so prefer the drops over the tubes of petroleum that get caught in her long eyelashes and cause huge grease spots all around her eyes that dirt gets trapped in. These drops keep the hair around her eyes clean. The drops don’t come out too fast and it is very easy to administer the correct dose in each eye. The best part of this is how quickly it works. My dog had relief that I could see within a day. By day four, her eyes looked completely clear. You would obviously want to continue to use My goldendoodle suffers from allergies and as a result has frequent eye infections.

Cat eye infection
By Felinemama on Jul 23, 2019
Currently using for my cat. Cat is sort of complying. So far so good. It does not sting or my cat would jump.
