hi all
i hope you don't mind me posting here as i need some advice quick. my bunny Angel has been suffereing with a blocked tear duct and has had a lot of treatment. his eye is much better but to my horror this morning the other one is terrible! this eye has not run at all or looked sore, ever, but today the third eye lid is very red, looks like blood in it and under his top eye lid it is blood red and a little swollen, it looks like it is bruised on the outsite but i think it is the red showing though as he is white. the eye has no discahrge and is open. he is eating and acting his normal self. i had such a scare when i saw it and almost rushed him off to the emergency vet. when i calmed down i decided not to at the moment as it isn't my usual vet and angel seemd very happy in himself. i'll take him in the morning unless his eye gets worse today. We think his other eye problem is because of tooth roots so perhaps this is too. i have seen alot of eye problms i the past but never like this. I did also think that his eye was bulging but the vet has looked at it and thought that is was because the sore eye was retracting and makng it look larger. she also examined it for abscesses and said all seemed fine, the bulging eye is the one that is bad today so i wonder if the bulging was something to do with it. am just baffled as to what it is or is it maybejust a bad case of conjunctivitus?
any advice would be much appreciated!
