Dog hit in eye with tennis ball: Why is she squinting and unfocused?

Question

It is possible that her cornea was scratched by the ball or some debris and that will distort her vision. Or it may have been watering a lot and that could have made her feel like she was seeing something. Your vet will do an ophthalmic exam and check to see if her cornea has been scratched. Based on the results of their testing they will be better able to tell you what if going on and recommend an appropriate treatment.
