My dog's eyes are cloudy, sensitive to light, and have discharge. What's wrong?

Question

Hi, My mom's teacup yorkie developed a grayish cloudy eyes and lost it's gloss. the dog is still seeing but bothered by the light. She is in Egypt and it's hard to find a trust worthy vet i really need advice so we can at least guide the vet, I attached pictures of the dog. Could this be glaucoma? and if so or if it's something else is it treatable. Few days ago the dog was loosing balance and drunk walking. Now it's better and the eye discharge is a little less. Please help. Pet's info: Dog | Yorkipoo | Female | unspayed | 3.4 lbs

The sensitivity to light is a sign of pain. I wiukd first be worried about an ulcer on the cornea. This can cause pain and a discharge and easy to test for. Glaucoma can have a big eye and a red eye, not usually squinting. An eye infection can also cause these issues along with a dry eye. Your vet can check the tear production and look for an ulcer as each one has medicine that can correct this
