Went out to see ponies last night and one had really weepy, gunged up eyes. There was quite a lot of white discharge.
I bought her in and bathed her eyes and checked her at about 10pm, again very gunky. Bathed her eyes again and this morning although no discharge one was completely closed she did manage to open it after about 10 minutes, it was quite hot round her eye and she was rubbing it against my arm.
I am guessing it is conjunctivitis.
I have called the vet who is coming this afternoon.
Has anyone got any experience of eye infections? Do they clear quite quickly, is it infectious like in people, should i keep her separate from others?
Any advice would be appreciated.
