She does not. I just gave her some more terramycin and she let me get closer then ever before, maybe a good sign? Heh
Does she put her whole head in the hay feeder when she is eating hay?

How often are you putting it in her eye? Like i said we had to apply it 4 times a day for 10 days and we didnt see any sign of improvement until about day 5 of treatment.

I'm starting to think it was also caused by the foxtail problem I am having with Nastya
Wool sheep especially those with wool on their faces, this issue will occur again and again and will get quite expensive especially when the fox tails start to migrate into the eyes, nasal cavities, ears, organs, between the hooves, etc. . you will have to keep a sharp eye and at the first sign of any symptoms such as discomfort to check that area as soon as possible and take immediate remedial action. Isn't it about time to sell of the wool type sheep and buy open face sheep such as Suffolk or hair sheep such as the Dorper ? This type of sheep will minimize these issues but not totally eliminate them. When one lives in an area with foxtails this goes for goates, ( especially for long haired animals such as dogs, cats, alpacas, your clothes, shoes, etc., too.
