Hi any one out there had any experience with conjunctivitis? Charlie was diagnosed with conjunctivitis on Thursday but her eyes actually look worse to me. Def can not see an improvement. Does anyone know how long it should take before I notice an improvement. All thats happening at minute is I'm stressing her out 3 times a day and they don't seem to be sny better than 3 days ago some times her eyes are barely open. Any advice would be great
 
Some times eye infections need a oral antibiotic along with a occular one, you might call the vet today and run it past them the eyes still look yucky.
 
Are you using drops or ointment? Ointment doesn't work as well, IMO, and it makes the chins miserable. As Dawn said, get some oral antibiotics and check about the drops.
