Huh. Our dog's eye pressure is high.

[Croney]

She's only four years old. Her comprehensive exam was today. One eye is ok. The ok range is up to 25, and hers is 31 in the other eye. He's sending home a prescription.

The drug name he told me on the phone is one I take -- for glaucoma. It will be interesting to see how dosages and costs compare.

Well, she takes after her mom. 😕

1. Aw. Sounds like her Mom will take good care of her, no matter what.

[Croney]

2. Yep, she's family!

5. Thanks. We have a pet health plan we pay monthly, and it includes many extras.

It seems expensive until compared with the cost of annual check-ups etc. and then it actually pays for itself.

She needed leg surgery when we got her, and that cost a lot, so we got the plan after that.

6. I bought my dog's glaucoma drops from Walgreens. She had her own discount card.

However, they cost a fortune and that was a decade ago.

7. Yes, I'm not looking forward to finding out!

8. Wow, sorry to read this.

I had a cat that was diabetic, and a chihuahua with heart failure who took 5 different tablets a day.
Chihuahua lasted an extra 5 years, the cat was only an extra year. It's what ya do for love, I guess.

I can't imagine how much medicated eye drops will be. Good luck.

9. Thank you!
