Here are some tips on how to properly care for your dog's eyes:
-
Regular check-ups: Check your dog's eyes regularly. Check for red or swollen eyes, increased tearing or discharge, and squinting.
-
Cleaning: If you notice tear residue or dirt around the eyes, gently wipe them with a clean, damp cloth. You can use special eye solutions designed for dogs.
-
Diet: A balanced, high-quality diet has a positive effect on eye health. Follow the recommended feeding schedule and avoid excessive treats that could negatively affect eye health.
-
Permission: If your dog wears a collar or muzzle, make sure they are loose enough and do not put pressure on the eyes.
-
Preventing irritation: Protect your dog's eyes from dirt, dust, and humid wind. You can put goggles or a hood on him, especially if he has sensitive eyes.
-
Regular visits to the vet: Visit your vet regularly, who can perform thorough eye exams and detect any problems early.
-
Caution during activities: Be careful not to injure your dog's eyes during games and activities. For example, when playing with a ball, the ball can accidentally hit the eyes.
-
Ensuring a safe environment: Remove sharp objects in the apartment and garden that could endanger your dog's eyes.
-
Caution with cleaning agents: When using cleaning agents in the area where your dog lives, be careful not to let them get into the eyes.
Dog eye care should be regular and thorough. Any suspicion of an eye problem should be consulted with a veterinarian immediately to prevent serious complications and ensure the health of your pet's eyes.
