How to dissolve a dog's salivary stone near the eye non-surgically?

I am sorry to hear about Lupita. It sounds like she could have a sialocele or ruptured salivary duct causing accumulation of saliva under the skin. Unfortunately the only recommended treatment for this condition is surgery. You can read more about this condition and its treatment at https://www.acvs.org/small-animal/salivary-mucocele If your vet isn't comfortable performing the surgery you can ask for referral to a specialist who can perform the procedure.

To me, this looks like a Meibomian gland cyst. These are best removed surgically. It is unlikely that it will go away on it's own. It will likely continue to grow. The surgery will remove part of the lid margin, and then close with a suture. They heal very well.

I am sorry to hear about Isis! Unfortunately there is not topical medication to shrink a growth like this, the only way to remove them is surgically https://veterinarypartner.vin.com/default.aspx?pid=19239&id=4952578 .

The problem with a removal of the gland of the third eyelid is that many dogs develop pannus/dry eye(because that gland is responsible for much of normal tear-film production), which then needs to be treated life long with expensive eye drops and can also impact your dog's eye sight negatively. So unless there is a medical reason to remove the gland, it is not advisable. Consult with the ophthalmologist weighing up the risk vs. the benefit of removing the gland. If the cherry eye is only a beauty fault to you , then I would not risk creating a dry eye in the dog and just leave it as it is. Unfortunately, cherry eye surgery is not always successful. Cherry eye is hereditary, so it’s best not to breed a dog that has developed this condition. You will always need to monitor your dog for "dry eye" after surgery: Signs to watch for that would indicate dry eye are: redness to the lining of the eyelid, a thick pus-like discharge from the eye, and a cloudy cornea.

Unfortunately you cannot do much back home as the easiest way to treat them would be to try some antibiotics+antiinflammatory drops which are on prescription anyway. This treatment may help in case of inflammatory ''bumps'' and can reduce their size. In the case the bumps have a completely different nature (skin cyst or benign or malignant tumors) a completely different approach is required. Usually there are two ways your vet can do that a part from examining it directly during physical examination. A biopsy can be taken under local or general anesthetic, otherwise a smaller sample through a fine needle can be aspirated (this technique is called FNA= fine needle aspiration).

I would ask your veterinarian about the option to freeze the wart off. it is small enough that it may work. However, working near the eye with the freezing solution is risky because the freezing solution could go into the eye and that would be bad. There are cotton swabs you can freeze and then apply the cotton swab to the wart and see if a few treatments with this would help shrink the mass down in size. Unfortunately, surgical removal is typically the best way to get rid of these masses. I hope this helps!
