Eye Drops for Pets - Scientifically Formulated, Pate

....though I am sorry to say that it has not cured my MinPin's cataracts (diabetes induced). I can say that these OcluVet drops have helped my dog see better because he rarely runs smack into things like he used to---and I don't mean things that are in front of him that he is used to (i.e. knows where they usually are, like chairs or laundry hampers) but things that someone has recently put in his way. (like a new bag of dog food just brought into the house or a bag of garbage that I've taken out of the can but not taken outside yet) Things that are very close to him he still doesn't see well but his distance/peripheral vision is definitely better than it was before I started the drops. (as if the drops have shrunk the diameter of the cataracts and thinned the thickness of them somewhat) Also, the OcluVet drops may have kept the cataracts from getting worse (bigger and thicker), and thereby leaving him totally blind, as I have been very regimented in applying the drops 3x per day ever since I started using them (and this is my 2nd bottle purchased). They are very expensive for the amount you receive, but they do last a good while--over 2 months for a small dog that only needs 1 drop per eye, 3x a day (any more than one drop just squeezes right out, his eyes are so small) I have had no problems with a leaky bottle, as some people have reported---I just make sure the cap is on tightly and shake the bottle side to side rather than up and down. Also, no problems with too many drops coming out when I squeeze the bottle---I first position the dog, holding his eye open, then turn the bottle upside down over his eye, then very slowly and gently squeeze out one drop. I plan to continue using these drops either as long as I can afford them (and with their price and this economy, who knows how long that will be??) or until they don't seem to be working well enough any more to be worth their price. MEDI-VET ANIMAL HEALTH please take note: Please, please, please lower the price of these drops so that more people can try to save their pet's sight?? You'll sell more bottles in the long run and help so many more animals! Cataract sury costs were out of my reach, plus there is no guarantee that the surgery itself will not bring on other eye problems that could blind a dog, such as glaucoma. After much research I felt that OcluVet drops were my only chance to try and save at least SOME of my dog's sight and I'm glad that I took a chance on them. UPDATE: Still using these drops (June 2013) but now I only do them 1-2 times a day, depending on how Tracker's cataracts are looking that particular week---and they DO seem to get worse in a cyclic fashion. When I notice that the cataract seems thicker or bigger in diameter I use the drops twice a day until they appear to be diminishing, then go back to one drop a day. As I said, I don't believe these drops can/do "cure" a well established cataract but I KNOW they do help with Tracker's cataracts. He's still running at almost full speed in the yard and unless there are very deep shadows along with bright sunshine (the cataracts keep his pupil from reacting quickly enough to the differing light) or it's full dark, he never runs into things, so I know he still has vision. The new, lower price is a welcome surprise, I must say. :o) I'm ordering another bottle now..... UPDATE: Jan. 2014 - Still using these drops for my diabetic MinPin and he still has good enough vision that unless he's in near darkness or moving from VERY bright sunlight into deep shade he never runs into anything, even in unfamiliar territory. When my dog was diagnosed with diabetes the Vet warned me that if he started to develop cataracts (and most diabetic dogs do), that he would most likely be totally blind in one or both eyes within 6 months, with no recourse after that other than very expensive (and possibly dangerous) surgery. And even after the surgery there was no guarantee that the eye(s) wouldn't have to be removed due to the onset of glaucoma, which sometimes happens after a dog's eye has had surgery done on it for any reason. I'm so glad that I found these drops! Now, if they would only get a little cheaper. ;) UPDATE: April 24, 2014 - I just ordered another bottle of these drops a week or so ago since my dog's eyesight is still about the same as it was---definitely no worse. I attribute the fact that he hasn't gone completely blind by now solely to these drops. His vet is very surprised that he still has vision after having developed cataracts over 3 yrs ago.

helping a lot

It took a while for me to really begin to notice a change in my dog's eyesight. I mean, like 4 bottles worth. I didn't start out with the 3 times a day as suggested; I just went with one drop twice a day. It might have taken longer, but two times a day fit my schedule and budget. In the end, the result was the same, and I am so happy with the results. There are activities she now does that she didn't before, so I know the drops are improving the clarity of her cataracts. I would highly recommend these drops. I mean, what have you got to lose? Sure, the money, or if your dog doesn't tolerate the drops. But that's your dog, not every dog. And I was willing to sacrifice the money if it helped her. If it didn't, at least I could live with the idea that I took a chance and tried, rather than knowing there might have been something I could have done to give her a better quality of life (she loves playing with the ball) and didn't.

Great product. Helped with my dogs eyes. Easy to put in dogs eyes n helped with comfort

So far, we really love this product and it seems to be shrinking the cataracts on our beloved pet. We will continue to use it as directed and pray that we can change his life for the better. Thank you for offering this quality product. It is easy to use and doesn’t seem to cause any discomfort to the pet outside of having drops put in their eyes, which is a little scary even to humans.
