Thanks for your question! It’s understandable to be concerned about your dog's recovery after surgery. Cherry eye surgery can sometimes lead to changes in the eye as it heals. A bit of cloudiness can actually be a normal part of the healing process, as the eye adjusts and reduces inflammation. However, it’s important to keep an eye on it to ensure there are no complications.
Cloudy eyes in dogs post-surgery might be due to increased tear production or mild swelling. These typically resolve as the eye heals. Make sure you continue any post-operative care your vet recommended, like applying prescribed eye drops and ensuring your dog doesn't scratch or rub the eye.
However, there are certain signs that warrant a closer look. If the cloudiness is accompanied by significant redness, discharge, your dog is pawing at his eye, or if he seems to be in pain or discomfort, it would be best to consult a vet. These could indicate an infection or another complication that might need medical attention.
If you're worried at all, it's a great idea to book a video consult with one of our vets at Dial A Vet. They can give you peace of mind and tell you if any further action is needed.

Real questions, vet reviewed answers and quality care.
It was so easy, I needed some eye drops for my dog and thinking about going to the vet on a weekend made me nervous about the cost involved. Dial A Vet was a much simpler, cheaper option with faster results. Within 10 minutes of the call, I had the medicine I needed for my dog without an expensive consultation.
A great fast efficient service with a qualified vet who was lovely and helpful. Thank you Samantha. I was able to sort my dog at 6pm on a Sunday night for $49 - amazing. Highly recommend.

What an amazing service, at my wits end as I knew my beautiful dog had an ear infection, could not get into the vet for 4 days. Never knew there was vets online until I googled. Within 15 minutes on a Sunday I was taking to beautiful Samantha who diagnosed and treated our Jasper. Only $49. She trusted that we knew our boy and gave us lots of advice. I will definitely be using dial a vet every time and sharing with all my friends and family. Absolutely fantastic kind caring service. 11/10
