hi hun

Has the vet done an Xray at all?

there are also some antibiotic eye creams that the vet can try.

Did the vet say what is causing it?

does the vet know the cause?

if they rule out teeth then i too would think maybe it was a allergy.

how long has it been happening for? is it a recent occurrence or has this happened all her life?

I suspect that my mind went the same way as Katie's: sometimes the teeth roots grow up into the eye area and cause weepy eyes.

I agree with Katie and Cheryl.

Has your vet checked her teeth? If not, this might be a good direction to go in. I know that with chinchillas especially one of the first signs of tooth roots growing upwards is weepy eyes, and their teeth are open-rooted just like bun's.

Make sure the water you are bathing her eye in is sterile (I boil water and leave it to cool before applying it with a clean piece of kitchen roll which will soften when wet) Thumbs Up

Sending vibes for her and I do hope it's nothing too serious Hugs

Sounds like it's not an allergy then bless her heart.

I hope that the eye drops work for her.

Please give her a cuddle from me. Is she eating ok?

I wonder if she has an infection behind the eye ? I think an x-ray of her head will be able to tell you more.

We have one that the vet triied to flush his eyes yesterday he is actually blind and they are so blocked she couldn't do them so he will get them done next vet visit.

Sending Vibes for her and hoping she will soon be better, she's a beautiful rabbit xx

Are you confident the vet you are using is rabbit savvy?

Ardene House in kingswells are about 1 hour from you in Huntly and are very, very good. I guess it depends how well your bun travels?

I have firsthand experience with them and only stopped using them because they closed down the practice nearest me to concentrate on the animal hospital at kingswells. (I am south of the city.)

Has she actually had a head x-ray, as several people have suggested?

The vet can look at the surface of her teeth in her mouth, but not the roots.
