Re: [AlpacaTalk] more on gucky eyes
hi Sheri - i will make a point of finding Euphrasia, i prefer homeopathic measures to drugs anytime - i will at least have it on hand if this ever happens again, and i can treat right away. - i'm waiting to hear what the vet has to say today -
i'm thinking fonzie has poked himself in the eye with a twig or branch as he is not responding to conjunctivitis treatment. I'm going to give him a little rescue remedy right now as he is not a happy boy with all this handling - i should have thought of this before
thanks

Hi,
This sounds a bit like an injury or stigmatism (sp). There is a
homeopathic remedy that is supposed to be good for this sort of
thing. It is Euphrasia. You can get a 30C almost everywhere
homeopathy is sold. Without knowing exactly what the dose us I'd
give one dose and watch closely. If nothing happens in a couple of
days I'd give it again. It might take a while to clear.
Best of luck,
Sheri
