Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! I would not use any product that wasn’t prescribed by a veterinarian, especially in the eyes. If Kat is having an eye issue, I recommend taking her to a vet for a close look and proper pet medications. Human medications can sometimes make pets worse and without knowing what is going on, I would wait and see a vet. Good luck and kisses to Kat!
