I can't believe both your Maggies have had it.

How long did it take for them to heal? She was healed very quickly. I had to put some ointment on her eye before and after but other than that she was fine.

Did they have to wear a cone afterward? For how long? No, she didn't. They just stitched the "cherry eye" back into her lid and she was good to go.

The vet said Frankie will have to wear one after.

Did they get it in one eye or both? Just one eye. They told me as well that she could have it happen in her other eye or re-occur in the same eye, but that was now 2 years ago and she has not had problems since.

The vet said that he may, in the future, get it in his other eye.

I also want to thank everyone here at PT. You have been a great support system and outlet for my doggy worries. It's not like you can talk about your dogs to anyone. Many people don't really care. I know everyone here does because they have animals too.

Thanks for your compliments on the pics.
