cloudy eye?
I noticed today that one of my dog's eyes is like cloudy. If it matters its the left one. What could this be? I looked online and it said it could be from lack of calcium or something like that, but i'm pretty sure my dog gets enough calcium. Could he be blind in one eye?
he's a wire fox terrier, male, almost 3 years old.
thank you<3

i would be willing to bet its a cataracts. its kinda unusual for a 3 year old to get it, but i have seen it happen. the cataracts is like a layer of skin that grows over the eye. its not technically skin, but its like a really thin film. your dog should be fine for now, but you might want to get him looked at again. dont be afraid to argue with your vet. if you think he is geting his calcium, tell him so. they need to know. also, if you cant go to the vet, maybe try calling one, and talking to them on the phone. the cataracts can lead to blindness, if not treated properly. hope i helped

You'll have to bring him to the vet to find out exactly what's wrong. and it may be serious, so I'd do it ASAP. Good luck! <3

You should take him to the vet if you want a chance to save his vision if it is that serious. The vet may be able to prescribe something in order to get it cleared up before anything drastic happens.

he could be going blind in that eye...or he could have glaucoma (cataracts) in that eye...you might want to take him to the vet. and get everything checked out

It could be cataracts, which very well could cause blindness. But i'm no vet, and I doubt anyone else on the site is either.
You really can't trust the internet, and I wouldn't be so sure if you could trust the advice you get on this site.
You really need to call the local vet and see what they say about it. It could be serious, it could be nothing. But you need to know for sure.
