Scratch on dog's eye

[hollie1586]

I was playing with the dog this morning and accidently caught my nail on her eye and she now has a little mark on the eyeball. she seems fine and absolutely normal but im juat a bit worried and as its bank holiday the vets wont be open. anyone know how to treat it?

Hi, to be honest, if it's not bothering her then just leave it but keep an eye on it [no pun intended]. If it starts to weep or anything then just bathe it with cooled boiled water and nothing else.

Hi hun, just leave her to it for now then, if you're worried get her to the vet first thing in the morning.
