Yesterday, when I returned home from work, Lucy's left eye had turned white and hazy. Today, I took her to the eye doctor. He said she had scratched it, gotten it infected and an ulcer had formed. Her steroid drops had aggravated the infection, too. She is on a new regimen to fight the infection. Dr Blair said this is a serious problem. It is weird how quickly this trouble set in. Just look at her shopping cart pictures from two days ago-things then were great. The complications regarding her eye surgery have been difficult. Today was a real downer. I'm sorry that I have so many posts regarding eyeball problems. Truth is, before we even started all of this, I hated eyeballs. I am squeamish regarding eyes and especially eye trauma. I don't like putting drops in any eyes. But I do it for my puppy. I love her. I have fought so hard to make her well. I want us to cross the finish line on all of this, give everyone involved a high five, and to just forget about eyeballs for a while. I wonder if Dr Blair, gets tired of eyeballs, too?
