Symptoms of dog keratitis

1. The main symptoms of dog keratitis are blindness and tearing, corneal congestion, corneal turbidity, or eyelid closure and corneal ulcers.

2. If a sick dog suffers from traumatic keratitis, there are often traces of trauma on the surface of the cornea, and the injured area is rough and uneven.

3. If the corneal epithelium is damaged and secondary infection occurs, white bulges will form locally.

4. If the damage is severe and the treatment is not timely, it can cause the corneal epithelium to fall off, causing tissue defective ulcers and corneal ulcers.

Treatment methods for dog keratitis

1. First do a simple eye cleaning and wiping around the eyes to remove eye secretions. Clean the eyes first and use saline to gently cleanse the dog's eyes.

2. Use eye secretions to do a drug sensitivity test to determine which antibiotic the bacteria infecting the eyes are sensitive to. Then choose the corresponding antibiotic for treatment.

3. Use drugs to repair corneal ulcers to promote the recovery of the cornea.

4. Wear an Elizabeth collar to prevent the dog from scratching its eyes further and aggravating the infection.

5. Avoid exposure to poor sanitary conditions. It is very important to go out for a walk every day. Even during the treatment of keratitis, there is no way not to go out. At this time, you must be careful not to let the dog enter places with poor hygienic conditions to play.
