Another Change in Dosage?

Luna

Well, today is another trip to the ophthalmologist for little Luna.  The last time she was there they had discovered that one of her medications was actually irritating her eye.  So, it was sort of a catch-22 situation.  She needs the meds to help her but on the other hand, they also bother her. Instead of eliminating the questionable medication altogether, they cut the dosage in half.  This has seemed to irritate her less but as far as maintaining the tear productivity at half the dosage, we won’t know until to this afternoon.  If all goes well, at today’s visit, though, Luna may be able to stay away from the vet’s office until April of 2008!  We are hoping that the medication schedule we have been following for her is just right.  We’ll keep you posted.
