Anybody know what type of eye infection this is? Doesn’t really seem to be eye worm but not 100% sure. Any diagnosis and treatment suggestions would be appreciated!

Thank you for youHe has a swollen eye from either a peck wound, something that has gotten in his eye, or he might have conjunctivitis (pinkeye) from a sinus or respiratory disease. Eye worm is usually seen in tropical regions where the Surinam cockroach lives, since that is one of the hosts.
Does he have any pus in the eye, sneezing or coughing, gasping, or wheezing? His nostril looks clean, but are you seeing any drainage?
Are those insect bites on his comb or peck marks?
