Inturned eyelids are a common cause of persistent eye discharge and i recommend a vet check to fully assess the cause of the persistent eye irritation and also the sneezing, which may be related to chronic viral or chlamydial eye infection, many of which require weeks of medication. A full dental exam is also recommended to ensure there is no painful condition making it difficult for her to swallow
