Sometimes pinkeye can cause an ulcer on the cornea (surface) of the eye that looks like a poke wound. The cloudiness and tearing you describe also makes me think of pinkeye. I like the triple aintbiotic eye ointment in such cases. You can get it from any vet and its good to kep on hand for such eye problems. Its not the same as triple antibiotic wound ointment from the drugstore, that's not meant for eyes. Seems to be soothing too and will help you little one's eye feel better no matter if the problem is pinkeye or a poke in the eye. Hope she's bright eyed again soon!
