https://www.vetsurgeon.org/f/clinical-questions/29325/eye-photo-anyone-seen-this-before This cat eye is fluorescein negative and has been on exocin drops for one week, no change. The swab sent to the lab last week shows no bacterial growth and no fungal growth . The white area cannot be wiped off, although there is some discharge fromen-USTelligent Community 10https://www.vetsurgeon.org/thread/225279?ContentTypeID=1Sat, 05 Sep 2020 15:59:14 GMT146601cc-3922-4be7-9974-7e1d4e45a66b:0d3c83af-a70e-4977-a340-919632aaed1eell<p>Thanks Thomas</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://www.vetsurgeon.org/thread/225278?ContentTypeID=1Sat, 05 Sep 2020 15:58:59 GMT146601cc-3922-4be7-9974-7e1d4e45a66b:8a5f88b9-951f-479e-ac0f-7ab6e9c6a40dell<p>Yes we don&#39;t really remember seeing it before.

I treated it with Pred Forte eye drops and after 5 weeks it has completely resolved.</p> <p><img alt=" " src="/resized-image/__size/320x240/__key/communityserver-discussions-components-files/164/6567.IMG_5F00_0273.jpg" /></p> <p><img alt=" " src="/resized-image/__size/320x240/__key/communityserver-discussions-components-files/164/4010.IMG_5F00_0265.jpg" /></p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://www.vetsurgeon.org/thread/225230?ContentTypeID=1Wed, 02 Sep 2020 22:19:30 GMT146601cc-3922-4be7-9974-7e1d4e45a66b:6f24a661-a19f-4201-b426-ef633d3d3580mark bridge<p>Eosinophilic Keratitis is my thought as well.

It should respond to topical steroids (Maxidex). Cyclosporine is usually better for long term treatment.&nbsp;</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://www.vetsurgeon.org/thread/225198?ContentTypeID=1Wed, 02 Sep 2020 12:28:43 GMT146601cc-3922-4be7-9974-7e1d4e45a66b:64001333-f907-486a-86f9-3c0748147563ell<p>Thanks for the info Anthony.

Sometimes they need to be on treatment for quite some time, slowly tapering the frequency of drops (I had a dog on one drop every other day/every third day a while back).</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://www.vetsurgeon.org/thread/225163?ContentTypeID=1Tue, 01 Sep 2020 16:31:37 GMT146601cc-3922-4be7-9974-7e1d4e45a66b:0fb8a46c-c360-4794-a735-a51756c5015cell<p>Thanks Lucy, you set us off on the right track, looks like it is highly likely.</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://www.vetsurgeon.org/thread/225161?ContentTypeID=1Tue, 01 Sep 2020 15:49:01 GMT146601cc-3922-4be7-9974-7e1d4e45a66b:dce2251a-90eb-4c31-b551-c3958daa80c3Lucy Fleming<p>Could this be eosinophilic keratitis?</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
