When choosing the best dog eye supplements or tear stain removers, it's important to focus on safety, breed-specific needs, and product consistency. Consider the following:
- Check for natural ingredients like lutein, eyebright, and omega fatty acids (found in Pala-Tech ForSight Chews)
- Avoid harsh chemicals or artificial brighteners that can cause eye irritation
- Understand your dog’s breed risk – small breeds with short snouts are more prone to staining
- Stick to a routine – consistent application or supplementation, such as with Doc Roy’s Healthy Eyes, is key to long-term results

If your dog exhibits any of the following signs, consult your vet immediately:
- Persistent or worsening tear stains
- Red, inflamed, or swollen eyes

Eye issues can sometimes indicate conditions like entropion, conjunctivitis, or nasolacrimal duct obstruction—which may require medical treatment.
