Help chicks eye is injured

[mandymae1984]

I think it may have either been born with this or did it possibly burn in on the incubator? Is there anything i can do?

Looks like a cataract. Could be a sign of infection. https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/858629/baby-chick-with-eye-problem
Reminds me of this thread.

Thanks! It's not crusty as of yet, my kids said that they saw it touch the heating unit in the incubator so I'm not sure if it's too late. It acts fine and seems like it can see so I guess I'll just watch it. I do have the saline solution like in the link you posted. Thanks!!
