fused eyes?

[floman13]

I just got my new baby chicks In the mail last night and this morning I noticed one appears to have fused eyes. I can see both eyeballs behind a thin layer of skin. Can she live with this? Can it be corrected? Im pretty sure she currently has no sight.

Can you post pictures of the chick? Does she seem normal otherwise? Could the eyelids just be stuck together from hatching gunk, maybe try warm water and a cotton ball or something and carefully soaking/wiping the eye?

I got them to open this morning by doing warm compresses. So I guess just hatching gunk
