my dog had a fleshy smallish button looking thing at the edge of her eyes. the vet said it was a hereditary problem. all of a sudden her eyes got white and eventually it had a phelgm like substance in the middle of her eye and it had a red spot and was bleeding. then it formed the same thing like the thing at the edge of her eye. anyone know any treatment? and what is that called? the vet doesn't know........

I'm no vet, but it sounds like something I have seen before. I don't know if it is called pink eye or not, but either way we were told to cut it out (the pink fleshy part). So we did and he got better. The whiteness in the eye sounds like she is going blind. A white film sort of thing is usually a sign of blindness and an eye medication to keep out infections usually cures that if it isn't real bad. I have never heard of one bleeding though so because of that I don't know. Maybe what happened to your dog was what would of happened to ours if we didn't cut it out. Our dog did bleed quite alot though when we did it, but it worked.

Oh no! I don't know what this is, but my dog gets a phlegm like substance in her eye often, and there is a prescription eye goup that the vet prescribes for me that always clears it up without fail -- but my god I don't know about the bleeding, good luck!

What Diane D said. See a specialist, since the regular vet isn't sure what to do about it. Your vet probably will be able to recommend one, since he did see that there was a problem.
Good luck!

My dog has cataracts, and I took mine to an animal eye specialist. Look them up, they would know. They are usually listed as Animal Eye specialist.

It sounds like it could affect the vision. Ask your vet to refer you to a specialist it he doesn't know.
