I need to get something first thing in the morning. she ripped the socks off I had tied around her paws. I don't know what to do gggrrr

They are called E-collars and yes you can get them at Pet Smart , if you phone your vet I'm sure they will also give your one and maybe you can get her eye checked out at the same time.

I will be calling him first thing in the morning. I wish I could duck tape her paws to her sides or something. Thank You

You might be able to manage a homemade temporary one - some posterboard and duct tape - any port in a storm, and duct tape works better on cardboard then furry paws anyway! (Yes, I know the "duct-taping of paws" part was just a comment made in frustration!)

Yep, duct tape works like Karen said......... (1 million and 1 uses lol)
If you do make one, be sure to duct tape the edges on each end of the
E-collar, it strengthens it.

thanks for that info. I am sending son to the store for poster board. I will do anything to help her right now. I can't keep giving her cookies to keep her mind some where else
