***OKIES in the BYC III ***

Looks like glaucoma to me

It is most surly a primary eye disease, not repiratory at all. Respiratory infections do not change the pupil of the eye and put pit or crators in the eye ball.

the iris seem to have inverted or sunk in to me when i look at his eye it is weird, is Glaucoma treatable?

this is his normal eye for comparison

Just as in humans it is degenerative and incurable except through surgery. He should be find with only one good eye. The thing that concerns me is the swelling around his eye.

I have a cockerel that was fighting an eye infection, nothing I did made a difference until I started putting drops of colloidal silver in his eye 4x per day. It is a natural antibiotic. The cockerel will surely lose his eye BUT the daily discharge of large quantities of pus is nearly gone and I have hope I can save him thanks to colloidal silver. You can buy it at GNC or another healthfood store. It is pricey but worth it.

about how many drops do you put in? and will his other eye get it?

Quote:
Could also be due to an eye infection inside the orb. I could be mistaken due to all the puss, but the orb looks to be misshapen, which indicates possible swelling of the orb, and the shape of the iris also indicates swelling of the orb. The sunken appearance could be the injury point where the infection is stemming from.

Quote: i was thinking it look like there could be puss behind the pupil because it is yellow was not sure though how would i treat it if i were an infection? with the colloidal silver ?

I started my boy on colloidal silver after 2 days of penicillian shots with no improvement. Hes had 2 more days of pen shots with 3 drops of colloidal silver 4x per day and washing the eye with warm cloth each time. I saw huge improvement after just 1 day of colloidal silver but continuing the shots to treat from inside and out. Hes lost his eye for sure and he's not out of the woods yet but he's eating good and gaining weight.

Quote: Different antibiotics work on different things. Your best bet is always going to be penicillin/amoxicillin. It's cheapest and easiest to get and works most often. I'm willing to bet if you'd try one of those you'd see improvement. Rinda, it usually takes at least 48 hours for swelling to go down and to see improvement. So while the eye drops shouldn't hurt, I'm not so sure it isn't the penicillin that's actually what's helping your boy.
