Beagle-dashound Mix (Atlanta, Ga) on 01/26/2011
5 out of 5 stars

My dog had cherry eye yesterday - I put in lubricating tear drops, held an ice cube in a baggy on it for about 5 minutes at most and then my husband massaged it for about 3 minutes tops using moderate pressure, pushing in towards the nose - AND IT WORKED! All of the sudden it was just gone!!!! This happened last night and her eye looks totally normal today!!!

Omg thank you so much for this info. We have a chihuahua and she was getting it. We did the eye drops, ice and then massaged twice last night and when we woke up today it was gone!

I have a 9yr. old shepard / chow mix she has had cherry eye for more then a yr. I could not afford surgery; I just found this, so I decided to give it a try. It worked much to my amazement in just a few minutes, I really could feel it "pop" back in, and she seemed to like it. It has only been a few min. and I expect I will have to do it again, but I have to say WOW! I wish I would have seen this sooner!

Sometimes I use lavender oil to get my dogs to calm down or sit still. It has even helped with motion sickness in car.

We have a 4 year old mix male....he has had "cherry eye" since we have had him...we rub it at night, but only allows it to be a tad less swollen...

What did you do, what item, did you use, that helped this heal? You are the only one on this site, that had this problem for a year or longer! THANK you for whatever you can share!!!

Betty, Robert and Pepper too!

The wonderful Theresa from Minneapolis, MN has been helping pet owners and their beloved pets around the world on Earth Clinic since 2013.

About Theresa

Theresa from Minneapolis was born and raised in the inner city, always wishing she had been raised on a farm.

Her love for creatures great and small began at an early age, starting with caterpillars - which continues to this day, along with an interest in all insects and 'creepy crawlies'.

Theresa's interest in pet health started with a bird keeping hobby at age 14, where she learned from another hobbyist that the simple addition of Apple Cider Vinegar (ACV) in a bird's drinking water kept fungal infections away; she was able to share this with her avian vet who in turn prescribed it to her own clients; Theresa was surprised to learn that she could teach her vet a thing or two. This important lesson - that each of us can be a teacher - was a turning point for Theresa, and  fueled  her quest for the knowledge held in lore,  and remedies passed by word of mouth. That quest for knowledge continues to this day, as new and old remedies alike are explored. She may not have experience with a particular issue, but she will research it to the best of her ability and share what she finds freely, in the hopes that you can heal or improve your pet's health.

Hey Frank,

You first have to start with a very high quality organic and pure grade lavender essential oil. Because they are concentrated/strong they can cause drying of the skin if applied undiluted, so you should always dilute in some type of carrier oil - usually an edible oil like coconut oil or almond oil. So you might take 1 teaspoon of coconut oil and to it add 2-3 drops of lavender oil and mix well. Then apply to the inside of the ears - it doesn't have to go into the ear, just apply on the hair free side of the ear flap. You could also do this with premixed essential oil formulas designed for calming pets. If you are dealing with a stressed dog you might also consider the Bach Flower Remedy called 'Rescue Remedy' that helps calm anxious pets and people. Lastly you might also consider Dog Appeasing Pheromones /DAP - a product you can find online.

I'm sorry that this is so random because your post is from years ago but I am desperate. My puppy has developed cherry eye in both eyes! Do you by any chance remember the name of the drops you used? I've heard that it's hard to get it to get back in after it's been out for so long, so reading your post about it going away after one year has given me hope!

Thank you and sorry again for the random message.

Mackenzie

Hey Mackenzie,

I am not the original poster but am replying. My best advice is to take your puppy to the vet to confirm the diagnosis and get a prescribed eye medication. If that is out of the question you might try a human eye lubricating drop you find at the local drugstore.
