Major eye issue

[MTFarms]

Do you think I can save the chicken and maybe the eyes? Left eye is very swollen right eye not very swollen.

What happened, how long has this been an issue and what have your done for it this far?

Are there any other symptoms aside from the swelling?

At the very least, you can flush each eye with saline solution---you can get some at a grocery store or a pharmacy.

Have you looked inside to see if the eye is intact? Take a picture if you can. Was she pecked in the eye? If the eye is intact and not punctured, I would rinse it with saline or an eye wash (Bausch and Lomb from Walmart is good) twice a day and apply either Terramycin eye ointment, plain Neosporin or Vetericyn eye gel twice a day. Your vet may be the best bet.

I’ve flushed with saline cleaned and an eye antibiotic. I will try move the eye lid and see what I can. But it’s both eyes. Right eye did look okay and had pupil movement.
