My 14 weeks old English bulldog puppy has cherry eye in one of his eyes, I took him to a clinic and they gave me a cream to put in his eye but its been like 2 weeks already and there is no progress, I'm not sure if he is ready for a surgery or what else should I do . Thank you for taking your time to answer my concern.

Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Tyson is so cute! Cherry eyes are very common in English bull dogs. They can live with them, you just have to watch for dry eye and infection. Surgery is recommend by replacing and tacking the prolapsed gland. Removing the glad is NOT recommended. Just be aware that cherry eye surgeries have a high rate of failure and needing to be re-done. Good luck!
