If you are too busy, then you shouldn't have a dog. They require time and care. You need to take him to the vet so he can get antibiotics. He may go blind if you don't.
ADD:
You can at least ask a family member or friend to take him to the vet for you. I suggest you find him another home.

It sounds like he does have some kind of infection. Unfortunately, you need to take him to the vet. If you don't you will risk losing his sight in that eye. It wouldn't take long for the vet. You could set up a lunch appointment, or bring him to work for a day. Maybe the neighbor could watch him?
Part of being a pet owner is taking responsibility for them, just like children. If you are unwilling or unable to make time to care for your pets, then you should consider giving him to someone that has more time on their hands.

find a good home for your dog if you are to busy to take him to the vet then you shouldn't own teh dog. By law where I live it is a case of cruelty if a dog need to be seen by a vvet and the owner doesn't provide care.
If this was a child or yourself I'm sure you would find the time so go
Your dog maybe even loosing teh eye do to your neglect.
Not only you but whouever was taking care of the dog during the time you were gone is guilty of cruelty.

First off, if you are too busy to take your dog to the vet for proper care, then you should NOT have a dog or any animal. Either way, his eye is more than likely infected and needs medical care right away (if your too busy have a friend take him). If you don't, it will get even worse and he will probably lose the eye.

I certainly hope you are joking (and, if you are, you have a terrible sense of humor).
Why didn't your neighbor, who I presume was the one in charge, take the dog in to be check if s/he knew that the dog had been bitten?
And, if you are sooo incredibly busy that you cannot take this animal (which is your responsibility) to the vet, how do have time to play around on the internet?
Take the dog to the vet.
Or, surrender it to a no-kill shelter, along with your other dog.
Then, have no more pets again.

Having a pet includes giving it care when it is needed. Even though you are busy, your pet needs immediate care. He obviously has an infection. You don't want your pet to suffer, do you? Regardless of your other activities, your friend needs help, SO CALL THE VET NOW.
There is nothing else that any of us can say to help the situation, and there is no other choice: call the vet. Better to be safe than sorry.

First of all, if you didn't have enough time for the dog to take him to the vet, or for that matter even get him..why did you get a dog in the first place. Your too busy? You left the dog for two months,the dogs eye is infected...you come back to see the poor thing and your ''TOO BUSY''? Take him to the vet and if you can't get someone who CAN take the dog please.If your still... "too busy" then please give the dog to someone who will care for the animal and isn't ''too busy'' to show the poor dog some love and attention..

It sounds like your dog has a bad infection. Why didn't the person who was caring for your dog take him to the vet if they knew he was bitten???? The poor dog, at least clean the eye., but it has gone too long for home remedies. You may want to re-home the poor dog if you don't have time for him. That would be the responsible thing to do. Please just take care of your poor dog;~(

looks like she has a watch an infection. Glaucoma frequently shows itself via a hazy sheen to the attention (looks like a white-ish haze to the attention) which you in many cases see in older canines. yet for her, she's the two harm the attention (scratched it or poked it or knicked it on a pointy plant or some thing like that) or she has a watch an infection. Trauma (not extreme trauma, a scratch or being poked in the attention with the fringe of a plant or stick or toy) will reason dilation problems and reason redness. an infection will do the comparable, plus account for the "gunk." I understand you're difficulty, yet i'm specific the vet would be waiting to help.

It sound like he has an infection. Have you tried washing around his eye with warm soapy water. Clean it really good and see if there is a cut around his eye. If there is use more soapy water and clean it even better in the wound and put some neosporen on it. Do this often. Like 2 or 3 times a day. If the eye is cut, you need to find some time or ask some else to take him to the vet. If the infection is too bad, he may have to be on antibiotics.
