[RC] Runny Eyes - RHightshoeI have an 8 month old colt who has consistently runny eyes and I can't figure out what to do about it. I took him to the Vet and she cleaned out his tear ducts and put him on antibiotics for a week. When the week was up she called to check on him. He still had runny eyes so she put him on a different antibiotic for another week. Well, apparently it isn't an infection. After cleaning of tear ducts and two weeks on antibiotics he still has runny eyes. He looks like a 700lb. Poodle. I regularly wash his face to keep the dried tears from drying to his face and causing another problem. I thought about allergies in the winter time but I sure don't now what they would be. He eats good Timothy hay, 3 cups of steamed crimped oats and 3 cups of Buckeye's Grow n Win twice a day. He has plenty of clean water. I took your recommendations and don't over feed him. He looks great. Everything about him is normal and apparently healthy bu t his eyes just keep on running. Any ideas or experience with this problem would be appreciated. Thanks, Bob
