hurt baby eye area

[carrieNchip]

The ridiculous fan on my LG incubator tore up my oprington chicks

The eye area of one is bad... I separated it but I'd like to know what to put on it.
It seems to be the eye area, as if it shut its eye tight when the fan started to chew up its face

I'll get a better picture in a few hours.

So the question is what is the best ointment to help this eye heal quickly?

 

[carrieNchip]

Ok. Well ive been using vitamin E and its healing.

First you need to cover the fan with something before you
have more problems ....

Bactine sprayed on a Q-Tip and wipe gently on the eye

Thanks.
Yea, the fan issue was addressed quickly. Stupid LG incubator.

This is what I used for chick with eye infection - Neo/Bac/Poly. (Also one of my children had a pet bird with eye problem, we used this same product) It is the same product given for kitten's with sore eyes. As well as human's with eye infections. We rescued a chick from a farm store brooder that had awful crusted eyes. After treating for 10 days you would not know the terrible shape the eyes had been in. Our vet's office will sell without having the effected animal in for an office visit. Used to be around $8 a tube, now $15. It is a small tube, and you do not use much at all. I apply a very tiny amount on a cotton swab. Good Luck.
