I have used CS in my pet's eyes, many times in fact. Emergency use as an eye wash stings quite a bit, but is effective. I have blended the CS 50-50 in a shot glass with buffered saline solution (like for contact lens rinse) and applied that multiple times daily with much less stinging/reaction. It also worked just fine. In every case the eye infection cleared within 1-3 days. Antibiotic eye ointments are available and do a fine job on simple infections. http://www.pawstogo.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=80 . If my pet just had an infection, I'd use this because the ointment itself provides a protective film as well as the antibiotic. If it was in actual injury or a chronic infection, I'd also use the CS/saline.
