What to do if my dog has a swollen eye but won't go to the vet?

Question

Zeus has developed a swelling in his left eye but I can’t take him to the vet Coz he gets into too much stress and begins to froth in the mouth so what eye drops to put kindly advice. Pet's info: Cat | Asian | Male | neutered | 6 years old | 13.22 lbs

Poor Zeus! It looks like he could have an eye infection, and that is likely uncomfortable and painful for him. Unfortunately I cannot tell you what eye drops to give him, as without seeing him in person, I legally cannot diagnose or prescribe medication. He does need to see a vet for this problem, and he should see one today. Leaving this untreated can lead to vision loss. Please take him into a vet for treatment. Best of luck.
