About Optimmune Opthalmic Ointment
Protect your pet’s eyes with Optimmune Opthalmic Ointment. One of the most common eye ailments facing dogs is “dry eye” (scientifically known as Keratoconjunctivitis Sicca or KCS). Dogs suffering from KCS experience dry, red, and itchy eyes due to their inability to produce enough tears to keep their eyes moist.

The active ingredient in Optimmune Opthalmic Ointment modifies your dog’s immune response to correct and reduce symptoms of KCS, as well as to treat Chronic Superficial Keratosis, an inflammation of the cornea. Optimmune Opthalmic Ointment is FDA-approved and treats ‘dry eye’ without causing system toxicity. It is also preservative-free and thus has little chance of causing secondary or chemical infections in your pet.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Optimmune Opthalmic Ointment works GREAT!! Excellent product!! My bullmastiff had severe issues in her eyes and she would just be miserable every day. She would have a lot of 'mucus' draining from her eyes and several times a day I needed to constantly clean her eyes to get the mucus out. She really tolerated my doing this and I am sure that has a lot to do with the pain of everything going on with both of her eyes. This product works great and I know my girl appreciates the treatments as well because she comes up to me every night and sits down and waits for me to complete her treatment. She is an amazing dog and this is an amazing product and the price is great compared to what the vet charges. June 10, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 Works for my dog This product is very good . My dog has an ulcer in her left eye because she wasn't producing enough tears. Her vet prescribed this. When I used it for my dog her left eye started healing, but i have to keep buying this until my dog passes away because my dog's ulcer might come back if i don't . When I bought it here is soo much cheaper than the first time I bought it from my vet. When I bought it the first time it was more than $60 after tax. February 11, 2009
Rated 5 out of 5 Brought the Tears Back! I adopted a pug that had severe keratoconjuntivitis and had no tear production in one of his eyes, serve dryness and swelling, along with a small tumor on the surface. I have been using this product now for 1 year and tear production has come back to his eyes. They are also not swollen and he is much more comfortable. My vet gave me a liquid form that I thought didn't really work that great. I found this on PetRX and now I buy most of my medication online. Thanks PRX April 26, 2008
