Misha had a dental Feb 5th. When he went to have his sutures rechecked, the vet noticed that his eye looked irritated. I didn't want her to do a whole lot at that point since he was still sore from his teeth, so we agreed to try antibacterial ointment. His eye cleared up but a week later was irritated again. So I did the ointment one more time and after it was done, the eye again is irritated. It's red with the third lid slightly covering. I made an appointment with an ophthalmologist, but it's 4x as expensive as a regular vet.
Just wanted to see if anyone knows whether the ophthalmologist is necessary or if his regular vet could handle this? The vet checking his teeth was an actual dentist at the university hospital and she suggested the specialist.
