It might not even be cherry eye. The whites are red in both eyes on a couple dogs.

Thanks in advance.

Cherry eye is a structural deformity where the conjunctiva protrudes, usually blocking the tear duct. If you have two dogs with the same thing in both eyes, several other things come to mind. Pinkeye, chemical irritation and Lyme's disease are all indicated by what you are describing. Any chance of a picture?

Isotonic eyewash couldn't hurt at this point.

While training this past summer a few of the dogs, after running through the weeds, would come in with red/irratated eyes. Could be an allergic reaction.
