    Swelling lower eyelid (inside)

    I noticed this afternoon that Cooper has what looks like swelling to the inside of his bottom eyelid. He doesn’t have any discharge or tearing from the eye and he isn’t rubbing it. Any thoughts on what it might be??

    I'd have the vet take a look at it.

    I agree.. you don't want to take any issues with the eyes lightly. I would have your Vet look at this.

    Could be a small seed or something stuck in there from running in the grass. I'd get to the vet pretty quick.

    Maybe I'm not seeing it clearly but the white of the eye looks a little red. Might be a foreign body caught in there. Would definitely have the vet take a look.

    I'd Vet too, eyes are precious. Spending your money for nothing and listening to the sound of your Vet's laughter is a wonderful thing. I'm not kidding.

    Eyes are definitely always a vet visit.

    Pinkeye... being treated with Antibiotic Drops. If no improvement by Monday we are to go back. We have administered the first drops... he was pretty good...I’ve got my fingers crossed that continues

    Depending what kind, pinkeye can be contagious to you and other dogs. Lots of careful handling and hand washing.
