Help with my quails eye!

Poor thing :hit... I know nothing about quail disease but it kind of falls into the description of vitamin A deficiency(or too much of it, in rarer cases)? I read this post on quail necropsy and the symptons seems quite similar.

hi everyone! i put a eye drop for eye infections (for humans) on it this morning. One of her eyes was really swollen. Tonight the eye that wasn't swollen looked perfectly normal! :celebrate her swollen eye was more opened. I put the eyedrop again. I'll update tomorrow.

@Nabiki , @muddy75 ? is there anything else i should do?
I'm glad to hear that she's looking better. Be careful when using human meds, though because they often don't work the same on the critters as they do on us. Sounds like this one is working, though.
