Hey

I have a nosy b adult, and theres something wrong with his eye. On his right eye hes not opening it and the eye is sunken in. But hes not dehyrated, cause his left eye is bluging out like usual, can i do anything? I put him in the shower this morining maybe to wash something out, but it didnt work, and he opens his eye now and then. What else can i do??? Im planning to take him to the vet as soon as i find one, can anyone give me suggestions???I live in between pickering and Scarborough. And if you kno the prce range i would like to kno, most are around 35 jsut for a check up, my mom would just like to know

In the meen time try and keep him well hydrated and mist him alot to allow him to clean it out.

Is he rubbing it?
is there mucas?
How does the eyeball itsself look?

oh and your probably looking for around 60 for the first vistit plus the cost of meds or special tests.

ok thanks, no he hasnt been rubbing it, but hes been creating this watery stuff, and it looks like water. I eyeball it self looks fine, but skin is all wrinkly and dry. Ill try and get a pic, it looks pretty bad

What do you mean? You find the light is too bright for his eyes? I have never heard of that but then again, anything can happen. There are these ceramic heat emmitters I have seen in various pet shops. I haven't heard any comments on them so I couldn't really tell you against or to get one. There are various sizes I beleive and you can find the aproppriate size.

I would still sudgest a visit to the vet. Nothing helps more then talking to an experienced proffessional
