Poor Friday! Yes, since his eye is still bleeding despite these medications, he should be examined by a vet. You can take him back for a recheck by his first vet, or seek a second opinion with a different vet. Either is a good option. Also be sure that Friday is not rubbing or scratching his eye by putting an e-collar (cone) on him. I hope hat he feels better soon!
