#19: Eye Drops

Eye Drops with Amelia

To make sure our seals are as healthy and comfortable as possible we sometimes need to administer different medications to them. Harbor seals are mammals and may develop some of the same health issues that people can. This picture shows Amelia receiving eye drops to reduce inflamation from a cataract in her left eye. Amelia is excellent at this behavior and keeps her eyes wide open so the drops get in on the first try.
