Sore eye??

I just noticed Lola seems to not be opening her eye fully, and it looks a bit puffy and pinker than the other side with a tiny tiny bit of wet fur underneath. I feel so bad as I saw her sat like it earlier and just thought she was sleeping with it shut which sometimes she does. She's been eating and moving round fine otherwise and her other eye is totally fine so when I've seen her from that side I've not thought anything was wrong.

I can't get her to the emergency vet now, my OH is out dj'ing someones wedding and won't be back until 1.30 am and I am working till 4.15 tomorrow I have boiled some water to cool down to bathe it in a bit, but is there anything else I can do? She is an indoor bun so I can keep an eye on her all night if I have to

Her myxi booster is a few weeks late where I have been broke, so now that is playing on my mind it is that. But I am hoping it is something as simple as she has poked it with hay or scratched it herself. I have only ever had a bun with eye problems as he was a dental bun, and that was different to this, so no experience of eye infections etc, but is that a possibility?

I thought it has been going too well with them recently

possibly an eye infection, id get her in for vaccinations and your vet can then treat her for this and take a quick look :wave:

Try swabbing her eye every few hours with warm salty water or if that doesn't 't work human eye ointment works very well. Don't panic it's probably an eye infection

I'd just bathe it with the cooled boiled water if I were you for now. Maybe you can gently open it to see if there's a foreign body in there

Thank you all, I completely forgot I put a thread in here as I took it to rabbit chat when I discovered the problem.

Lola had a splinter of hay in her eyelid, she was very lucky in that the way it was angled in the corner, so in a more fleshy part rather than scratching the eyeball. The emergency vet got it out really quickly and even waived the £130 fee for us :shock: she was really kind. Lola is doing really well now, we had to keep a watch on the eye as it was red, but that has gone right down now. I now have Frankie not eating pellets today. We had a few months with no worries, so I guess they are all coming at once again :?
