When you find that your cat’s eyes have unusually thick secretions, use medical absorbent cotton dipped in warm water for basic cleaning, but do not wipe the inside of the eyes to avoid scratching the cornea and causing blindness. If there is pus inside the eye, you can gently rub the outer edge of the eye to squeeze out a large part of the pus. The eye drops you choose can be "erythromycin" eye ointment, but try to avoid using human eye drops or eye drops. Most of the eye drops or eye drops used by these people contain hormone-like substances, which may have adverse effects on the healthy development of cats. Today I will introduce to you a Chinese medicine prescription.

The traditional Chinese medicine name is "gentian grass". This medicine is easily available in traditional Chinese medicine pharmacies. This medicine has mild properties and is a good medicine for treating eye diseases. Use a tamper to mash the gentian into powder. Take about one gram and mix it into the meaty food that the cat likes to eat, and let the cat eat on its own.

Treatment of cat eye redness, swelling and erosion

If the cat is old enough to feed itself, mix the gentian powder into the canned cat food and mix well, then mix in some cat food for the kitten to eat. Gentian grass is a very bitter medicine. If too much medicine is mixed in, sometimes kittens will find it bitter and won’t like to eat it. Therefore, the amount of medicine mixed at one time should not be too large, and the amount of canned food should be mixed well, so that the kitten can eat it at once. Take the required amount of medicine. Cats with mild eye disease should be given medication once a day. Cats that have severe suppuration or even visual impairment should be fed medicine three times a day. During the period of feeding this medicine, you can feed a small amount of antibiotics, but do not mix multiple antibiotics, let alone feed a large amount of antibiotics. Antibiotics should not be given for more than five days. If the cat is sensitive to the smell of medicine and refuses to eat food with medicine in it, buy "rice cereal" for babies, dilute it with water and add a certain amount of gentian herbal powder, and feed the cat rice cereal with a syringe with the needle removed.

By feeding medicine in this way, the cat’s eye disease will basically be cured in a week. If the cat's eyes have deteriorated to the point of visual impairment before feeding the medicine, if the medicine is given according to this method, the eyes will also be swollen and will no longer become inflamed and suppurative. But vision could never be fully restored. It can preserve the integrity of the eyeball and does not affect the cat's life and growth. It also saves the cat from having to go to the hospital and suffer the pain of having his eyeballs removed. The use of traditional Chinese medicine to treat cat eye diseases also avoids the many side effects caused by Western medicine that only relies on large amounts of antibiotics. What's more, there are some cases where eye ulcers have worsened, and the only treatment option offered by Western medicine is to forcibly remove the eyeballs. There is no other way.

The eyes are the windows to the soul, please take care of your cat’s eyes like you take care of your soul!
