Which Optrex is it your vet said to use? Infected eye, allergy etc
Iv seen a discussion elsewhere that needs the right info or cats will end up with sore eyes  :innocent:

I guess infected because its chloramphenicol but have never been told this by a vet so not 100% sure.

 :thanks:

I just used the regular optrex I got from sainsbury's - but Willow's eyes weren't infected. I don't know If the antibacterial one would be too strong for cats?

Thw vet didn't specify any particular type.

Ok,thanks, just wondered as theres half a dozen types in the range    :-:
Im sure we had chloramphenicol prescribed at work but no chance of the brain remembering the strength!  :Crazy:
