My red eye rat's eye turned clear?

Question

I noticed it a cupple days ago. One of my rat's eyes turned clear. It was normally deep red. Ever since I got it.... It can see just fine.

Why?

Answer 1

I think it could just be sign of age, as your rat gets older it could just be changing.

Answer 2

It could be going blind.

Answer 3

its the first sign of death., make sure its in its cage because if you lose it and it dies it will stink out your house.

Answer 4

IMO it could be the formation of cataracts.

Answer 5

Several of mine have done that and lived for a long time afterwards and they lived to be healthy, happy old rats. Must be something that just happens. Some vets do see rats though so I would take him or her in if it seems to be a problem.

Answer 6

Try to call your vet and talk to him/her about it. Hopefully he/she will know what it is!!

Answer 7

talk to a vet
