eye ulcer?

Question
I just brought home a dutch rabbit from someone who was giving her away in an ad. On examination she has one eye that looks like it was scratched and the eye is bulging from that cut in eye. Also,she has semi-dryed stuff in corner of eye. What should I do? She probably has been this way for awhile because her nails were so long I cut off at least a half inch from each nail. We also have to other rabbits in the house and now am concerned it might spread to the other rabbits.
Please give me any advise..can this be treated at home?

Answer
I would take her to a vet to look over her eye. Poor little rabbit. She is probably blind in that eye.
If vet is not an option for you, you can try rinsing the eye with water a few times a day to make sure any particles or germs are rinsed out. She may have scratched it herself with her long nails.
