Can the spray harm my dog's eyes?

It should be noted that the citronella solution is buffered to minimize any discomfort should it get into the eyes. However, as with any aerosol product, the spray should not be aimed directly into the eyes. The collar, being worn on the neck, is directed at the snout. This makes it a safe distance from your dog's eyes since the spray dissipates very quickly.
