My dog has corneal edema. What's the prognosis for his cloudy eye?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Cat | Korat | Male | neutered | 13 years and 9 months old | 9.6 lbs

Hello, Beau was diagnosed with corneal edema. One of his eyes is partially cloudy and there is presence of blood vessels. He is on Neomycin and Polymyxin B sulfates and Dexamethasone Opthalmic Ointment. The vet said the blood vessels suggest the injury has been there for quite some time. What is his prognosis? Is there anything else I should do? Thanks.

I couldn't tell you what the prognosis is without examining the eye myself but it can be a long process of healing, you need to carry on with the treatment until the problem resolves hopefully. other that the treatment you have been given there is nothing else you need or can do to make it better.
