FAQ: What do glazed eyes in my pet mean?

HA! FAQ, HA! for Diseases

Answered by Dr. Jeff Feinman

That’s a great question because that subjective symptom is a real direct clue to an internal imbalance. So, if glazed eyes persist or your cat’s behavior or part of BEAM (behavior, energy, appetite, and mood) are off, then go to the vet. If it persists more than 24 hours, if your cat is older than 12 or 14, or if they’re showing any other abnormal symptoms that persist, go to the vet.
