[QUOTE="TCRanch, post: 1641577, member: 24027"] They may have been vaccinated for pinkeye BUT most vaccines only target moxarella bovis and there could be another strain going around. Precisely why I vaccinate with a custom autogenous that targets both moxarella bovis & m. bovoculi. And it's also quite possible they simply have eye abrasions - it happens. I generally start with flushing/spraying the eye with Veterycin multiple times a day and see if there's any improvement. If no improvement you can do what Ken suggested, treating with a topical containing Cloxacillin (Today mastitis cream, e.g.) and I have done that before with good results. That said, there are a number of times when I only have one opportunity to catch & work a calf and my go-to is flushing/spraying with Veterycin and a hefty dose of LA300. [/QUOTE]
