The eye should be fomented with tepid or warm wa- ter, and the horse kept in a darkened stable or loose-box; next, the eye may be kept constantly moist by means of a sponge or cloth, wet with tepid or cold water, and applied over the eye; or better, Goulard's extract, used in the proportion of 1 drachm to a pint of water.
