one eye closed

[kayleenxx]

i thought maybe she got some calcium powder in her eye, so i took a washcloth and got it out, VERY CAREFULLY but she keeps having her right closed, im worried about her, what should i do?

If there was something in it, it may still be irritated. You can flush it gently with artificial tears...other than that, it may need a little time. Have a pic ?

artificial tears?

 

[AHBD]

From the drug store. It's made for humans but can be used to flush theirs.

now she let me up close, it looks like there is loose skin on her eyelids, do they shed there too?

 

[AHBD]

Yes, they shed around their eyes, sometimes you can see flaky skin around the eye. They will just rub it off, or it falls off on it's own.

ok, if that doesn't happen in a couple days.. ill start with the artificial tears and pedialyte bath, but from what i see, its just flaky skin. poor girl, that has to be annoying, its right on her inner eyelids.
