Hi and thanks for your question on Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach. Grey goo near the eye with no other signs of inflammation such as redness of eye or yellow/green discharge, squinting the eye or pawing at the eye, it is nothing to worry about especially if it is a small amount. If it gets worse or if other signs are seen as mentioned above, you may want to take her into her veterinarian for an eye exam.

I hope this helps and thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach!
