[QUOTE="Lucky_P, post: 1465504, member: 12607"] It's not labeled or approved for ophthalmic use. Is it damaging? I don't know. However, ANYTHING that you squirt into the eye will be washed out in 10 minutes or less, with normal tear production... probably even faster with increased tearing. Far better to use that LA-200 or 300 as a systemic (injectible) dose... therapeutic drug levels in tears is the same as in serum/tissue fluid, so... in an animal treated properly with an appropriate dose... the eye is constantly 'bathed' in a solution of oxytetracyline for the 48-72 hrs of treatment provided by a single injection of long-acting oxytet.
