[QUOTE="farmerjan, post: 1707506, member: 25884"] 50 - 50 ,,, if it is that bad, maybe not. Hope she gets peripheral vision if the cloudiness goes away. I had a bull calf that got it in both eyes and was walking into things... about fully blind. Treated both eyes with shots, a squirt of tomorrow in each, patched the one he had no reaction in, the other there was a little tiny bit of reaction to waving a hand in front of it... and a good shot of Draxxin... he got back most all the vision in both eyes.... just spots in each. I wouldn't have given you 10 cents for him getting more than "shadow vision" .... so it's a chance. But hit it hard asap.... Draxxin is expensive, but it is our go to if it is bad. Don't overdose, but don't skimp... I think it is 1 cc per 100 lbs or maybe a bit more... go on the heavy side for the weight... if she weighs 700 go with 8 cc's.... not alot over but a little extra. That is what our vet said... if they are smaller calves we "guess" /"eyeball" their weight and go on the heavier side.... we both are pretty accurate in the ball park when we sell calves so it might not be exact, but close.
