My dog has just been stung on the eyelid whilst out walking. I came straight home and telephoned the vet. She advised me to give her a 1/4 tablet of human's Piriton (chlorphenamine) and put a cold compress on the eye. FYI my dog weighs about 5 kilo's. The vet advised if it continued to swell then she may need to be seen, however I can happily report that within 2 hours the swelling has gone completely and my dog is bouncing around.

You can give your canine friend CHILDRENS Benadryl for allergic reactions such as this. I disagree with running your dog to the vet due to a bee sting, but that is my opinion. Call your vet and ask them the Benadryl dosage for your dog.
This is a confusing question. If the dog's one eye is swollen from a bee sting, it's because of the venom that the bee injected. It is possible that if you didn't remove the stinger, assuming it actually was a bee and not a wasp, that it may have become infected. But, for a bee sting to spread to another eye would be unusual. As with any medical question, talk to a vet. Or, wait until the poor thing loses an eye from infection, that's another option. I don't mean to be rude, but while you were typing the question, your dog is sitting their suffering. Good luck. Again take your 4-legged baby to the vet. If you were stung by a bee in the eye and your other eye is starting to have a problem, would you not go to the doctor. Geeesssssh! Take care of these little guys, they're tough, but they can go down rather quickly.
