Yes, entropion needs to be ruled out. I had one dog that needed surgery to correct it. First one eye, then the other (simple procedure). Another one that responded to a steroidal ophthalmic ointment…the condition didn’t come back. I suspect it was due to the groomer accidently nicking the dog.
Both were toy poodle types.
It is often referred to as “cherry eye” it is obvious because you will see an inflamed bulb at the inner corner of the eye sticking out. It looks worse than it is……however, untreated it can lead to infection and pain.
