I was just bringing Misty and Josie in for the night and I always look them over and I noticed Josie had a small piece of hay sticking out of the corner of her eye. I picked it out, it wasn't really stuck in deep but it was poking her and was causing her eye to tear. She had a small amount of pus in the corner of her eye and on her eye lashes. I wiped her eye with a moistened tissue. She just shut her eye and let me wipe, I think it felt good because her eye was irritated. She was acting fine, actually quite spunky tonight running and playing!! She ate her grain and then dove into her hay!! I thought it best not to mess too much with it tonight let nature take it's course with self cleansing. But I want to be prepared if it should still look irritated in the morning..... Is there a type of eye wash I can get especially made for horses? Should I try to treat first before I call the vet out?? I have treated my dogs for minor eye irritations over the years but never treated one of my horses!!
