I have been prescribed idoxuridine for a likely feline herpes eye infection. I used it three times a day for a month, and symptoms more or less disappeared, but the vet (a feline eye specialist) wants me to continue treatment twice a day for a month and then once a day for a month. My cat totally hates these drops, and application has changed her behavior in a bad way. She now fears me and hides under the bed most of the day. She never did that before and was very sweet and attentive. She often shies away from me when I approach her. Is it really worth it to continue this treatment? I admit that I haven't asked my vet this question because my wife has been taking her for check-ups. If treatment is warranted, anybody have any advice on changing her back to the cuddly little girl she used to be?
