Answer   Hi Jade

Can you tell me how old your piggy is please.

She might have something in her eye, in which case you can wash out with water, but let me know age and I will advise you further.

Andy

she is nearly 2 years old in about 20 days

thanks

Hi again Jade

So she isn't very old then. I wanted to rule out glaucoma (deteriorating sight)

I would therefore advise that you get a clean tissue and some pure water, and try to clean the eye in question. She might have something in her eye.

This won't be an easy job as she will probably squirm. If that doesn't work, let me know and I will do some more research for you.
