Vaseline petroleum jelly is not recommended for use on dogs' eyes. While it is generally safe for external use on the skin, using it near the eyes can cause irritation or discomfort. If your dog has eye issues, it's best to consult a veterinarian for appropriate treatments or products specifically designed for ocular use.
Vaseline (petroleum jelly) itself is not toxic and does not cause blindness. However, if it were to get into the eyes, it could cause irritation or discomfort. It's important to avoid putting any foreign substances in the eyes, and if irritation occurs, it’s advisable to rinse the eyes with water and seek medical attention if necessary.
Applying Vaseline (petroleum jelly) near the eyes can be safe for some people, as it can help moisturize and protect the skin. However, care should be taken to avoid direct contact with the eyes, as it may cause irritation or blurry vision. Always do a patch test first, and consult with a healthcare professional if you have concerns or existing eye conditions. If any irritation occurs, discontinue use immediately.

If Vaseline gets into your eyes, it can cause blurry vision, stinging, and irritation. It is recommended to flush your eyes with water and seek medical attention if symptoms persist or worsen. Avoid rubbing your eyes, as this can spread the Vaseline and potentially cause further irritation.

To safely and effectively use Vaseline to remove your dog's eye boogers, apply a small amount of Vaseline on a clean cloth or cotton ball. Gently wipe the eye boogers away from the corner of your dog's eyes. Be careful not to get Vaseline in your dog's eyes. Repeat as needed, but if the eye boogers persist or your dog shows signs of discomfort, consult a veterinarian.
