QuestionHi my rabbit has an eye problem i believe a serious one. Sorry for my english i am from Greece. My rabbits eye has a white thing (white liquid ) every day for about 2-3 months we clean his eye from that thing.Our vet doesn't know a lot about rabbits so he gave to us several eye drop but the rabbit was becomming ok for 2-3 days and then back to the same condition. His eye is red and has that white liquid ,these day he goes to dark corners and doesn;t let us clean his eye. What shall i do? I tryed many things no luck !!!
Answer via email too please.
I hope you will help me

AnswerDear Marios,
It sounds as if there is pus draining from the tear duct (which is a guess, since I cannot see the rabbit--but from your description, this makes sense), and that could mean that he has a molar root infection. This is fully explained here:

and the information here will also help:

Please feel free to share this information with your vet. You also may wish to be aware of culture and sensitivity testing, which I would recommend you have done on the white discharge:

I hope this helps get you started on his road to recovery. Please write back if you have any other questions.
