"Aw, not again!"

Yep, she's back in an E-collar. I'd noticed she'd been rubbing her right eye a bit, then saw a white spot on it, so I took her to the vet, and sure enough, she's got another corneal ulcer. What amazes me is that they're supposed to be painful, and she hasn't shown pain at all. But she's now back on blood serum, atropine and Cipro twice a day. We'll go back to the vet on Saturday to see whether the meds worked. This collar is smaller than the one she had to wear when she had the ulcer on the left eye, and I think she is much less bothered by it.

 

You can perhaps tell that both eyes really are not in great shape. The left one has pigmentation intruding over the iris and cornea, and both eyes have cataracts.

 

Getting old is not for sissies, human or animal.
