Is my dog's thick white eye discharge from both eyes due to parasites?

A little mucousy discharge is not alarming. It is also not a sign of worms. If the mucus starts looking like pus or if she starts squinting her eyes or if the conjunctives turn red, then you should take her to your veterinarian for an eye exam. However if she gets a little mucousy eye discharge once in a while without those signs, it is nothing to worry about.

Poor girl. White discharge from the eyes can indicate either a dry eye conditon or the beginning of an allergic conjunctivitis (allergies causing inflammation of the eyes). If she is also sneezing and rubbing her eyes from irritation, then chances are she has allergic conjunctivitis. You can discuss with your vet about trying some over the counter or vet prescribed antihistamine medication to try and help with this. Your vet may want to examine her first just to make sure we are on the right track with her diagnosis and treatment recommendations. In the meantime I would continue to apply warm compresses on her eyelids (while holding them closed) and Henry cleansing the discharge as needed to prevent irritation around her eyes. I hope that Sofeta feels better soon. Best wishes with her eyes and take care of that fur baby.

Unfortunately, I can't tell from the photo. It looks like Neige has a lot of discharge in the eye and this is concerning for an infection. I recommend to have him examined by the veterinarian to check out a possible eye infection and to look for any worms. I hope this helps.

It sounds like Juliet could have an eye infection. This is something that needs to be examined and treated by vet, as leaving it untreated can lead to vision loss. Give your vet a call to make an appointment for her to be seen to have her eye treated. Best of luck.

It could be Alfie has some allergies causing the white discharge. Any eye problem needs to be checked out by a vet promptly, as leaving it untreated can lead to vision loss. The vet can diagnose what is causing this discharge, and can treat him. Best of luck.

I recommend cleaning this daily with a hot warm cloth to remove the discharge. Then when you have the area clean apply a thin film of antibacterial ointment on the area below the eyes. That will help heal the skin and stop the discharge from sticking to the skin and fur. I would have Babygurl's eyes checked by your veterinarian. This looks like she has dry eyes, which is a decrease in normal tear production. With this condition the eye discharge is thick and sticky like this. There is medication for dry eyes which will increase the tear production. Dry eyes can be painful and she may irritate the corneas causing reduced vision without treatment, so please have her checked soon. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach to help you care for Babygurl.

Hi there and thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach to address your concern. The discharge you are seeing may also be due to dry eye (keratoconjunctivitis sicca) and could also be an allergy. I would recommend having Tibo examined by a veterinarian so that the most appropriate diagnostic and treatment recommendations can be made. I would recommend having a Schirmer Tear Test done to rule out dry eye as a cause. I hope this helps guide you in the right direction. Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns and I would be more than happy to help you further.
