My cat's eye infection won't heal. Is there an easy spray treatment?

Question

My parents have a cat that has had an eye infection that won't go away. Drops or swabbing the eye is very difficult for them to use since they are not very agile and the cat does not cooperate. Is there any remedy that can be put in spray form that would be nontoxic for the cat on a daily basis if it were sprayed and hit the whole face? Thanks for the help!

I'm not sure if O has seen a vet for his eye infection; if he has not, he has to see one immediately. The eye is such a delicate and important structure that any problem with it should be considered an emergency. Leaving it untreated can lead to vision loss. The vet can prescribe medication to treat O's eye infection and help your parents with administering the medication, as there isn't a spray that can be used for it. Please take him into a vet now.
