My 3 Favorite Dog Eye Infection Home Remedies (Safe and Natural)

Eye infections are common in dogs, and they typically are not something to worry about. However, it's important to treat them quickly or your dog could lose his sight. Dog eye infection home remedies can be effective, but you should have your pooch evaluated by a vet before trying any DIY options.

Some eye problems may require treatment with prescription medications or even surgery. Consulting a veterinarian is the only way to know exactly what the issue is and whether or not dog eye infection home remedies will be able to cure it.

"Make a saline solution using 1/4 cup warm water and 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Dip a gauze pad or clean cloth in the solution, and wipe the eye area starting from the snout (corner of eye) outward (toward the ear). If the eye infection is causing discharge, you'll need to clean the area every 30-60 minutes or as needed to prevent the discharge from hardening."

Thank you! I've been unable to visit a vet because of COVID restrictions, and with your information I've been able to help my puppy recover from a mild eye infection. I really, really appreciate you taking the time to share your tips!

Colonial silver will clear it up to it burns a little, but it helps clear up the eyes. It helps my eyes too, when it’s itching and irritated.

Tried the saltwater for 2 days now, my dog's eye is not as red and swollen anymore and it's not as teary as it is before. I wet a cotton with the saltwater and clean the eyes around 2-3 times a day. It helps, thanks!!

My Shorkie came home with a eye infection after a visit with the groomer, I tried the saline eye wash and it worked amazingly well! Thanks...

Normal saline (salinity of tears) is 1 Cup of water to 1/4 tsp salt. To ensure it is sterile (tap water is not), boil for 8 min and let it cool.

Do you put it in the eye when it's open or closed?

[capnpugwash]

Squeezing a cooled used tea bag from my personal experience both on myself and the dog does seem to help eye irritation.
