Assymetrical Eyes?
Question:
Eric: This dog needs to see a veterinarian immediately. This condition could be nothing, but it could also be an early sign of something quite serious, such as a tumor in or behind the eye. Without a medical examination, you might be missing something that urgently needs attention! Good luck!

Response:
: My dog, who is pretty much a mutt, Cockapoo we think, but she is : really cute and all. Anyway, she has this thing, that she has had : once before, where one of her eyes seemed to be larger than the other, : I don’t know if it is that, or she just has the lid open wider, : anyway, she has gotten it again, does anyone know what this is? Can I : use eye drops on her? Clear Eyes? THanks Eye drops are unlikey to help and may be harmful. Have a vet check her, an a veterinary opthamoligist if necessary. When I found my cat Reka Mao as an adolescent stray, she too had different sized eyes. Several vets didn’t know what to make of it and told me it was no big deal. When she was 13 she developed a spot in one eye which the vet thought might be a tumor, so I took her to a vet. opthamoligist. He said that the spot was due to her eyes deteriorating from. In her case it’s untreatable but painless, and her vision is slowy vanishing. The different sized eyes are from a head injury she had as a kitten. The smaller eye stopped growing and all sight in that eye was destroyed. She’s been totally blind in one eye for 13 years and we never knew. Please, have a vet check your dog’s eyes. She may have what Reka Mao has, but it could be any one of many other things. There are many kinds of eye disorders and most get worse without treatment.
