to be and if that means in the house on the couch all day, so be it. Let her adjust to what she is facing but you can help comfort her by leaving the tv or radio on when you go away. Maybe even ask her if she wants to go with you. When you enter a room tell you where you are and touch her. Sadly her degenerative eye disease is not the only thing she is suffering with. Did she like to get bathed? IF so, do that. For sure her nails will need to be maintained.

How is her hearing?

Make sure she is pain free. They make a bacon flavored CBD oil for pets.

Good luck,
