Do you have any saline? you can gently wash her eye with it also Terramycin ointment for eyes should help and Veterycin spray for wounds and infections is safe for eyes. can you post a pic? she may need an oral antibiotic is there is infection. any discharge from eyes or nares?

How long has it been like this exactly? Have you sought vet treatment?

 

[basketball duck]

It has only been like that today and yesterday.

She can t open it though.

I think she needs professional treatment, hun. :/ It could be injury or infection. Either way she needs some antibiotics and a thorough examination. Poor duckie.

I agree with Amykins she needs to be seen by a vet are you able to take her first of all?
