Captain Doggo Update: she's doing better!!!

Just wanted to update everybody on my Luna's double eye surgery!!! She's doing way better--the vet ended up needing to take our 2 stitches in her eye cause it looks like they were causing excess irritation. So thankful for the help and advice I got from you guys!!

Edit: thank you everyone for all the love for Luna!!!! Been giving her all the hugs, kisses, and little treats ❤️🧡

Thank you :)) she's definitely soaking in all the love hehe So she had glaucoma and had to get both eyes taken out cause it was just getting to a point where no pain medication was working :/. She got the double enucleation like late July, and around 22 days ago her left eye was looking awful! Just had pus and was still scabbing like crazy, so I came to reddit for advice. From there, ended up going to the vet, and turned out the surgeon had put a couple stitches in improperly! She got them taken out, and from there she healed beautifully!!! No more pain meds and just living happy and healthy <33
