jeemes 3,547 Posted March 23, 2014 Report Share Posted March 23, 2014 It could be a hereditry condition in some terriers.Weve had it in Russells. I dont think it gets better if its that but you do need to see a vet. Quote Link to post
skycat 6,172 Posted March 23, 2014 Report Share Posted March 23, 2014 More likely to be a scar from a small scratch. I've had a few dogs with scars like this, could be from playing with another dog, scratch from claws, or even getting a bit of grit smack into the eyeball. If the dog is OK now it should be fine, but watch out for any signs of cloudiness in the eyeball. So long as the little grey spot stays as it is don't worry. Quote Link to post
fireman 10,774 Posted March 23, 2014 Report Share Posted March 23, 2014 I've allways used Maxitrol eye drops for when this has happened with my dogs,a vet gave it to me when a pup got it's eye scratched once and it does the job.It's for human use so maybe blag your doctor for some .

UcanRUNbutUcantHIDE 190 Posted March 23, 2014 Report Share Posted March 23, 2014 Mines got this at the moment, an ulcer. Went to vets and they give me some cream to put in three to four times a day, charged me £45. is it optimune I use this it bout the same price tried all eye creams on my terrier and this is the only cream I found works. Terriers are prone to dry eye wich causes bacteria to form in the eye causing ulcers. My dogs suffered with this for years he's lost the sight in 1 eye and it's a constant battle to stop ulcers forming in the other Quote Link to post
