Answer 1

It's an eye infection. Put warm water on a Q-Tip and wipe away the gunk so your hamster's eye can open. Then, take him/her to the vet and ask for Fucithalmic drops you put in his eyes.

Answer 4

Hey, just relax hon.  It's probably nothing.  Sometimes hamsters can have sleepy eyes. One might open and the other does not or they will both look half closed.  My baby Syrian does this all the time and they don't fully open until she wakes up more.  

She might just have an eye irritation.  If her eye doesn't open up in a few hours just take a wet q-tip or a wet a wash cloth with some warm water and gently rub her eye.  

Don't stress too much right now.  Wait and see how she does in a few hours.  

Answer 5

take a warm wash cloth and gently dab the closed eye.  

Answer 6

Hamster expert fails.
