Please Note - Medical Advice
Please keep in mind that posts on this forum are from members of the public sharing personal opinions. It is not a replacement for qualified medical advice from a veterinarian. Many illnesses share similar symptoms but require different treatments. A medical exam is necessary for an accurate diagnosis, without which appropriate treatment cannot be given.
You should always consult your vet before following any suggestions for medication or treatment you have read about. The wrong treatment could make your rabbit worse or mean your vet is unable to give the correct treatment because of drug interactions. Even non prescription drugs can do harm if given inappropriately.
We are very grateful to members who take time to answer other members questions, but please do be clear in your replies that you are sharing personal experience and not giving instructions on what must be done.
Urgent Medical Advice: If you need, or think you might need, urgent medical advice you should contact a vet. If it is out of working hours phone your vet's normal number and there should be an answer phone message with instructions on what to do.
Does anyone have any experience of this?
I've read that in some cases the eye has to be removed, which I'm prepared for, but I'd hate to think I was letting her suffer. She hasn't been back to the vet since the redness appeared but I know the cause is the snuffles/teeth etc which I'm still treating before she goes for the op. She's acting normally so I don't think she's in any pain but I'm so worried about the poor little girl It's on the eye ball itself, around the bottom, the skin around is red too but I'm concerned about the eye ball in particular
