arthritis support
Cherry eye is a disorder that affects the third eyelid, also known as a nictitating membrane (NM). In this disorder, the gland of the third eyelid thickens and slips out of its proper place. This results in a red, swollen mass sticking out of the edge of the membrane, next to the lower eyelid. The third eyelid gland contributes to 30-50% of tear production. It has a protective function by releasing immunoglobulins (a protein that possesses antibody activity) to the eyelid, protecting it from infections.
What Causes Cherry Eye?
Cherry eye in dogs and cats is a genetic disorder. The exact cause is still unknown.
What Breeds of Dogs and Cats are Prone to Cherry Eye?
Young dogs, brachycephalic (smushy-faced) breeds, and toy or teacup varieties are prone to cherry eye. American Cocker Spaniels, Lhasa Apsos, Beagles, Pekingese, and English Bulldogs are at higher risk for this condition.
It is less common in cats than in dogs, however, some flat-faced breeds such as Burmese, Himalayans, and Persians, are prone to this condition.
Treatment Options
As cherry eye is a genetic condition, there are no known preventative measures to avoid it.
Depending on the severity of the cherry eye, treatment may not be necessary. When it is first diagnosed, your veterinarian may recommend anti-inflammatory eye drops to help reduce the swelling. If there is discharge or signs of a bacterial infection, your vet may also prescribe an antibiotic eye medication. However, if it is chronic and is causing problems for your pet, your veterinarian may recommend surgery to preserve the eyelid.
Natural Support For Cherry Eye
Supplements with anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties may help.
Supplements with anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties may help pets suffering from this condition. Here are some supplements that I recommend:
OcuLove is our oral supplement formulated specifically to support eye health from the inside out. It contains herbs that have anti-inflammatory and infection-fighting properties. Some of the herbs are also known to have antioxidants properties and promote circulation around the eye.
Turmeric supports circulation around the eyes and is also rich in antioxidants, anti-inflammatory, and antibacterial properties.
Stimmune contains herbs with antibiotic-like properties that help fight infections caused by bacteria. It is a natural aid to promote healthy immune function and help with allergy symptoms. Stimmune also contains anti-inflammatory properties that may help decrease inflammation caused by irritation of the third eyelid.

Symptoms of Allergies in Dogs
- Hot Spots
- Sneezing
- Difficulty breathing
- Face scratching or rubbing
- Ear infection
- Watery eyes
Causes of Allergies in Dogs
- Allergenic Food - chicken and beef can often be culprits
- Fleas & Insect Bites
- Environmental factors such as dust mites, pollen and other irritants
An allergy is an overreaction of the immune system to a normally harmless substance called an antigen. Allergies in dogs often occur when allergens are inhaled, ingested, or absorbed by the body. When this occurs, the immune system becomes over-reactive to substances it believes are harmful. This reaction causes a release of histamine, causing the common allergy symptoms in your pet.
The cause of allergies in dogs can be difficult to determine. While it is always best to eliminate the cause altogether, like omitting a specific food from their diet, some causes can be nearly impossible to totally eradicate, like dust mites or pollen. This is where a dog allergy supplement that is taken daily can help relieve your loved one of common allergens, even when you're not exactly sure what they are allergic to.
