Eye problem again

**sarah** · 12-03-2007, 01:53 PM

Well my 6 year old red foot has a problem with her eyes about 3 months ago one would not open at all, i took her to the vets and hannah gave me some shots and some eye drops. Things got better but now they are closing up again with mucus in them. I bath her every day so she can open them. I was due to go to the vets again today but Hannah (the vet) is off sick. I am going to ring her tomorrow to see what she suggest but wondered if anyone else has had the same problem.

ALl the other reds are fine that are kept with her. I have tried cod liver oil and humidity is fine.

Hi Sarah

You could try "brolene", I have used this with some sucsess. Its used for our eye complaints.
