What’s best store stuff you would recommend to keep eye lubricated ? Pet's info: Dog | Dachshund miniature | Male | neutered | 16 lbs

Kevin Sanada, DVM · Accepted Answer

The best thing to keep the eye lubricated for long periods of time are the lubricating eye ointments such as the one at the link below. https://www.1800petmeds.com/LubriFresh+PM-prod1660.html Your vet should be able to supply you with this, or you can get it at pet stores. Also, dry eye should be treated medically as well. If your vet did not prescribe specific treatment, then I would reccomend calling them and asking if there was meant to be any medication for this. I hope that helps and Spike gets better soon.
