You are wise to consider the eye drops. Research the side effects. It’s possible that it is affecting her eye sight temporarily causing her to be fearful.
One of my daughter’s horses started to act scared with strange behavior. Turns out the horse had a cyst growing next to his optic nerve causing blindness. Temporary because he had surgery to remove the cyst and is normal now. I’m not suggesting Beckie has a cyst on her optic nerve... but some of her behavior reminds me of the strange things the horse did as he was losing clear vision.
