1 question from pet parents
My rabits one eye is driping with milky white discharge what should.i do
Rabbits are very sensitive animals, eye discharge in rabbits are not normal, it may be issue in eye and also issue in teeths and gums... So before giving any treatment like any eye drops, diagnose it properelly whats the proper reason for this... There are two option either you book online vet video consultation with us or visit offline to near by vet....
A milky white discharge from one eye in a rabbit is usually a blocked or infected tear duct. This is often caused by dental problems, because overgrown tooth roots can press on the duct. It can also be an infection or something stuck in the eye. For now: gently wipe the eye with cotton soaked in sterile saline or cooled boiled water. Don’t use human eye drops or leftover medicines, because some antibiotics are dangerous for rabbits. See a vet within a day or two. Go the same day if the eye looks cloudy or swollen, your rabbit is squinting, there’s swelling along the jaw, or your rabbit stops eating or pooping. You can also book an online consult on Vetezy, and we can check the eye on video.
