just found a blob of white gunk stuck to the lashes of mr dusty's eye, the eye lids arent red, conjunctiva is lovely and white, eye is not swollen or appearing to be bothering him at all. have washed out his eye with sterile saline in case anything is stuck in it and hav decided to monitor for any more gunk over the next couple of days before taking him to the vet. does this sound ok? or should i make an emergency appointment?

i just need sum confirmation im making the right call here, am never too sure :? but if i did take him today theres not rlly much i can show them as his eye now looks normal! oh the eternal conflict between being an overprotective bunny mum and a cheap student!!!! :lol:

thanks in advance, liv xxx
 
I would say that if his eye looks normal now just keep an "eye" on him for a couple of days. If it returns you will have to take him to the Vet. Hope he will be ok.
 
fingers crossed!!!! thanks for the reply, i always feel nervous making these calls on my own :oops:
