Hello. Was the latanoprost scripted out by your vet? This medication is used in dogs with glaucoma, not KCS. Snoopy may also be hypersensitive to this medication, so if your vet has not diagnosed glaucoma, nor scripted the latanoprost to you, you should not be putting this in his eyes. Please see your vet to see what can be done to keep Snoopy comfortable. Your vet is more than qualified to diagnose & treat KCS. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
