This could be an allergy. Put an Ecollar on Marley to keep him from rubbing his eye, as he could damage his cornea with his nails. You can make one at home or buy one at a pet store. Take him into a vet tomorrow to get this checked out. Best of luck. http://dogsaholic.com/care/homemade-dog-cone.html
