Guest tweetybirdbeth Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 I have a question, I've read a bunch of stuff on the forum about Pannus. My Grey, Silvia was just diagnosed this week with it. My question is, after 3 days of being on the eye drops, her eyes look much clearer. Is this normal so quickly? I still see the film covering part of the eye, but for the most part it is much clearer. She is on the drops for another 12 days at 3 times a day, then we lower it to twice a day before going back to the Vet. Is this normal? Thanks!

We treated one of our greyhounds for 7 years for pannus and the initial treatment was the same 3x/day, then 2x day, then actually 1x/day per drug(we used two different types of drops). Are you seeing an ophthalmologist? I can highly recommend Dr. Felchle in Gilbert if you don't already have one(myself, I'm in Chandler). Good luck! Our dog did fine with pannus. I never could get her to wear the doggles but the eyedrops were easy to give and after the initial diagnosis we never had any issues, just regular check-ups.

Guest KennelMom Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 that all sounds pretty normal...Fingers crossed that her pannus is easily controlled (most cases in greyhounds are) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racindog Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 Sounds right. Slim got drops 2X a day for years and had no problems. Shouldn't be a biggie for a houndie though is touchy for a german shepherd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ChasesMum Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 our Grey was diagnosed with Pannus and she has done fine on the eyedrops. for years now its been once a day or every other day with no problems. (until just recently but its unrelated to the pannus) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
