Eye trouble Advice needed

[Brigitte Cowell]

I'd try changing food and litter just in case there is an allergic component to this maybe?

I'd also try a vet ophthalmologist...taking all the results you have from your vet to them... like us humans sometimes we need a specialist when it is a case outside the "normal" culprits :-(

I'm with Brigitte on changing the litter. I had a poor cat suffer for years with chronic snotty nose and we discovered it was the litter. (Recommend Made in USA litter...)
The azithromycin would help a deep seated infection if the organism is sensitive (quite likely). And it hangs around in the tissue for a long time to reduce recurrence.

I will change the litter tomorrow and start there and then how long should I wait before I change the food? .(thank you) Our Vet is consulting with the specialist, so that is why I have not brought her in yet, sigh grunt and grumble.

UPDATE! Well Malia still has a mystery going on and we are still trying to figure out what it is! We have tried so, so many different medicines. Her PCR panel is all negative, her eye ick tests negitive, all tests NEGITIVE! gggrrrrr her blood test shows a slightly elevated white cell count.

We are going to try Azithromycin, this is a antibiotic, but it also helps reduce the bio-film that bacteria make to help protect the organism.

We have not ruled out a possible nasal polyp but this would not be affecting her eye and yes she could have more then one thing going on.

She still has a runny nose with lots of sneezing. Our windows have so much Malia snot spray on them. Any and all suggestions are always appreciated.......

Has your vet tested for a blocked tear duct or ingrown eye lash? Perhaps get a sinus x-ray to see if there is a structural problem.

I was wondering if she had it before she came out to you :/
