Do you have to continue giving him eye drops? The doctor says Aubrey has an auto-immune disease that attacks her corneas and we give her a drop of two different auto-immune suppressing drugs a day (each eye, just to be safe). The last set of ulcers were much deeper than the doctor expected, so the micro-vascular patch is visible, but only if you are looking for it.

Her vision is not as good as it was before. She is very prey-driven and now she sees every leaf skittering down the street as prey, but it’s pretty cute seeing her bark, bounce and try to chase blowing leaves When I let her catch up with one, she snorts in dismay and goes on to the next leaf, which she KNOWS will be a mouse.

We,are off the drops, but I don’t think we were informed about the possibility of an autoimmune problem. I’ll have to raise this w the vet. Thanks for letting me know about that.
