Does this look like anything besides a scratched or pecked eye?
The black is dried blood and dirt. I have washed it and applied antibiotics. I have prescription eyedrops and Neosporin. Anything else?
She is scratching on it and getting it dirty.

It could be a peck injury, but watch for any signs of a respiratory infection such as nasal drainage, bubbles in the eye, cough or sneeze, or nosiy breathing or wheezing. Clean any drainage off with saline before applying drops. I would keep her inside with food and water to watch it.
 
Thank you.
We stayed with them for about an hour to listen for any respiratory illness sounds after we discovered her eye and then again this evening.
No drainage. It does look a bit better after we treated it twice today.
I picked up antibiotic so I have it on hand.
Poor thing. I've never had a sick chick before!
