About 5days ago I noticed my 1year & 4month old beardys right eye started looking swollen. & I got nervous about it. I do know beardys will puff there eyes out when shedding to help the skin around the eye, but this wasnt the case. For us who have seen the difference btwn a beardy puffing its eyes out for shedding & swelling, you can tell a BIG difference. But I was hoping maybe she got something in it, or maybe she scratched it because she did just get done shedding a few days earlier. So everyday I gave her baths & even gave her baths with Iodine in it just incase there was in infection. I would easily pour water over the eye and dabing it with a clean towel. After 2days went by, they eye wasnt getting better it was getting worse & quickkk. It became swollen SHUT and once in awhile I would check & it would be leaking, but I cant tell if its leaking like a goo or if its her crying because its clean & literally looks like tears :'(. You know how bad it feels thinking my babys crying because shes in pain.......
Anyways, again I would dab it with a clean towel & give her baths. She would enjoy the bath ALOT. Constantly moving around cleaning herself drinking etc. Even though it was swollen shut she would still open it like twice maybe 3times a day just to move around for a quick 2nd. So I figured it was hurting her & thats why she was keeping it closed.
Now since yesterday, she hasnt openned her right eye at all & its still leaking out & now her left eye is shut. Her left eye isnt NEARLY swollen shut like her right eye, her right eye is puffed swollen & all blue around it like its bruised and everytime u touch anywhere near it she smacks ur hand away. Her left eye is bruised like blue around it but isnt really puffy just seems like its bothering her so shes keeping it closed but wont open it.
Now, before I started typing this, I noticed below her right eye, like where he mouth is, her upper lip is swollen outwards like she has and over lip and its swollen around the right side of her faace.
I do know theres nothing I can do now that I do need a vet. I tried to make a call at the vet that I went to before, but there booked till June2nd. & i def dont want to wait till June 2nds. But they said they take emergency calls, for me to call tomorrow Friday righttt when they open at 815am & tell them whats wrong & hopefully they can get me in. If not, Im not sure what to do because it will be the weekend, she cant eat because she cant see but I am gonna grab babyfood tomo & syringe feed her. But Im scared its a really bad infection & that im gonna have to prepare for the worst. Im telling you all this because 1- I need to vent to ppl who understand and 2- Does anyone have and idea what it can be.
Sorry for all the mis spelling but Im not caring about how I sound or spell, Im upset and want people to see this asap. PLEASE HELP!
