Dan has always had watery eyes on a pretty regular basis, it seems wind and flies make it happen. I do have ointment from the vet if they get infected but as long as I wipe them daily when they leak they don't.
But recently, I'd say the last 3 months, it's non stop and he did end up with an infection just before Christmas as when I moved them 2 fields over I didn't take his flannel then kept forgetting to pick it up (I stop in there on my way to the others).
I feel like I am missing a trick? He does have bug eyes, maybe I should be plaiting his forelock? He won't keep a fly mask on and tends to rub at it, making matters worse. Any thoughts?
ETA, there is no squinting or indication of pain, he just gets crusty muck from his eyes half way down his face. And it's both eyes, though the right i generally slightly worse.
