About 2 months ago, I noticed on my male 3 yr old Siberian husky his left
eye pupil was very dialated, two days later it started to bulge and cloud over, I rushed him to the vet, they checked the
eye and prescribed ointment, it took care of the cloudiness, but
did nothing for the bulging or the enlarged pupil, last weekend I noticed redness or blood in his
eye, within a day that cleared, then came back with a vengeance, blood took over the whole
eye, rushed him again to vet, they said they couldn't give him a proper
examination due to his
eye being completely filled with blood, there was no charge, but said it was definitely not trauma and he is too young to be cancer, but there are exceptions to everything, no prescriptions or ointments, said they would
do very little and in most cases these symptoms clear on their own, they said to wait and watch, any change, for better or worse to bring him back, if there is discharge and seems to be healing then they can
do a proper exam, if there is more bulging then they'll have to stick a needle in the
eye to drain it.
