Right. Alf, for the past eight months or so I'd say, has had a funny eye on and off. It is like it is runny, or something, because the fur always looks wet around it and he almost looks bald because the fur comes away from around it? He's not scratching it or anything so it doesn't seem to distress him at all, but something just doesn't feel right with me about it...I'm not totally convinced it's not problematic!
I've mentioned it to the vet when he's been along for vacs. She's put drops in it - didn't show anything of concern. She's checked the teeth she can see (this was about six months ago) and couldn't see anything to suggest dental probs (although I know it could be to do with the teeth further back that she can't see) and he's not had any eating issues/drooling.
What concerns me the most is the fact it is recurring. It'll go away for a fortnight or so - then it comes back. I'm not convinced it's fine, although there is nothing else that suggests it's a problem other than my niggling feeling if that makes sense?
Any ideas? I can attach a pic if that might help, although it's not the best as he was periscoping as I took it and it's blurred.

See what I mean about the fur coming away from his eyes?! If these photos are massive sorry, but I can't resize them as am on my ipod!
