Guinea pig eye problem

Question

I noticed one of my guinea pig's eye is different then the other it is pink and smaller then the other. also it's watery and she keeps it half open. Is this pink eye?

Answer 1

Sounds like an eye injury. I'd find a vet http://www.guinealynx.info/vet.html

Answer 2

tAke her to the vet! she might have a "pea" eye

Answer 3

if it is

see if you can get hold of some Golden Eye Ointment from the chemist.

This is safe to use on your piggy.

If there is a bit of crustiness on the eyes,clean the area with warm salted water ( a pinch of salt ).

Use a bit of cotton wool ball dipped in the water to wipe across the eye,he will automatically close his eye and you will be able to wipe it clean

Apply a thin film just on the lower part where your eye liner would go,and work it into the eye by stroking gently. Your piggy will naturally close his eye and the ointment will get onto the eyeball.

Do this twice a day for 7 days and see if there is any improvement

Answer 4

Call your vet to make sure it isn't!

Poor little gift from God! :-]

I hope it feels better!

Good luck!
