Thank you for contacting Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach with your question about Piper. Poor girl. You can get some sterile saline and use that to flush her eyes twice daily until you are able to get her into the vet. You should be able to find some sterile saline at a pharmacy. I hope this helps!
