Eye infection

One month ago, Bogart had an eye infection in
his right eye. We saw the vet immediately and we went
through a course of antibiotic eye drops.
It cleared completely.

Yesterday I noticed it returned, so back to the vet for another
course of antibiotic treatment.

Has anyone else had experience with recurrent infections?

I clean his eyes daily and he is in a puppy cut so the hair is
short around the eyes.
Respond to this topic here on forum.oes.org  
Does he perhaps have an eyelash growing into his eye? That is not common among oes, but it does happen.
How is Bogart? Has it cleared up okay?
We are on day 2 of a 10 day antibiotic course.
Still somesticky yellow green drainage, but less
than the first episode.

He had no corneal abrasion at either vet visit.
Good point about the eyelash, Willowsprite. We will keep a watch
on him.

Hopefully this antibiotic course will work.
If not, there is a vet eye specialist not far from us.
I think I would lean toward a consult as our vet is not sure
why the infection reoccurred.

Thanks for your post, Bogart says Hi to Dancer, Sky and Abby!
