Thanks to all for your comments. Carline did have an infection which was treated with Polytrim. The thing that may have caused it or made it worse was her almost complete absence of blinking. I now encourage her to blink and her eyes are much clearer. Previously there was all kinds of slimy stuff. K. F.
