red , dry eyes for Yorkie;

Question
  Hello I have a Yorkie and he has really bad red eyes it looks like it hurts or burns , can we use any kind of over the counter eye drops for him?       Thank You   Lori Moore

Answer
Hi Lori, Do you think your Yorkie has allergies?  If so, you may want to try a supplement.
You can get the Normal Saline Eye wash for people - it is just sterile salt water.
Place this in the eye 1-2 x per day.  If you don't see any changes, you may want to call the vet.
Your pal many need a antibiotic from the Vet for conjunctivitis.
Also, this wafer supplements sure helps red and itchy eyes:
