Why does my dog have a white eye spot and make allergic noises?

Question

I have a spitz dog about 2 years old. In one eye you see this white spot. I took it to some veterinarians and said that the eye should be operated, it would be removed after it was infected. After some medications the dog is fine, eats, drinks, plays, sleeps but the eye is in this condition. What can it be? How did you get it and how did it get better? In addition, the dog nods and makes some noise as an allergic person. There are several months. Can this be related to the eye? What can it be? Pet's info: Dog | Spitz | Female

Even though your pictures are excellent quality it can be very difficult to tell exactly what is going on with an eye without being able to examine it in person using lights. It looks like Nice has corneal edema on the left, or fluid within the cornea. This could be from an infected corneal ulcer, glaucoma, or corneal endothelial disease. I would guess your veterinarian saw an infected corneal ulcer. and that the medications helped the infection. Since there is still edema the infection may still be present, or this may be a more permanent change. As long as the eye is not infected and the pressure is normal surgery might not be necessary. It's hard to know what the noise you're describing might be without being able to hear it, but I would be suspicious of a reverse sneeze. Dogs can reverse sneeze due to allergies or other nasal disease although it usually is not anything to be concerned about. I doubt any cause of a reverse sneeze would be related to the changes in Nice's eye.
