Ok folks came home from work last Tuesday, got horse in from field. Eye swollen and running it was half closed. Wasn't overly concerned Presumed eye ointment would sort out .Vet came small ulcer on eye and gave anti inflammatory but then injected some paste type antibiotic under the top eye lid. Said this would wash over the eye. Eye lid now huge vet said would be better in a day or so.
Next morning looked like frankensteins horse! Eye lid size of a fist and inside swollen so much you couldn't see eye just pink and raw inner eyelid which horse has rubbed and was now bleeding slightly. Vet called and came back and gave a jab of antiinflammatories. So ive taken pictures every day and eye is going down each day slowly and isn't sore now but I keep ringing vet to discuss and haven't seen him or spoken to him since last Wednesday and today he rang and said coming to see horse tomorrow.
Firstly anyone experience of any eye 'injuries' like this and secondly am I right to feel a bit annoyed that vet came to see horse and essentially made it a lot worse!
