[Gpdd] HEALTH - Eyes

[DebraStory at aol.com]

Our sweet Cheekie has an eye irritation that just won't go  away.  I have 
tried boric acid wash, human eye drops (Visine), and then  obtained some 
antibiotic ointment from the veterinarian.  We thought that  would certainly do the 
trick.  It has not.  I think that Cheekie might  have gotten some hay seed in 
his eye at one time, which irritated the area under  the bottom lid.  Even 
though there is nothing in the eye any more, it just  won't go away.  The bottom 
lid kind of droops down and the white part of  the eye is a little puffy or 
swollen under there. Sometimes it looks a tiny  bit pinkish as well, but not 
always.  I thought it could be "fatty eye",  but Cheekie is young and very small.  
He is not the least bit fat. Perhaps  he does not have to be chubby to have 
"fatty eye", but it is only in the one eye  and looks like an irritation of some 
sort to me.  I saw a posting on the  digest not too long ago that mentioned 
an herbal or holistic eye drop of some  kind that cleared up their piggie's eye 
problem when nothing else seemed to  work.  I meant to save it at the time, 
but I forgot to do so.  Would  the person that posted this remedy please send 
me the name of the drops or  repost it in the digest.  Any other suggestions 
would be appreciated  as well.  I wish to get Cheekie's eye problem cleared up 
soon.  It has  been going on way too long, and nothing seems to work.  We have 
run out of  ideas of what else to try.  Thanks very much from all of us!
