I took my guinea pig tiny to the vet in January for an eye check up cause I was suspicious of some things everything came back alright. Now she's been squinting her eye, she would just be standing still and kind of blink her eye slowly or like a squint and I am aware that that's something you should bring them in for but I'm not sure if I should cause it's not all the time, I'm a fairly new guinea pig owner I got them roughly 6 months ago so I'm not sure at what level is normal or not. When I mean not all the time I'm trying to say that she will walk around and eat for a while and not squint her eye sometimes I won't see her do it for days (which could obviously just be me) but I'm not sure since it's not all the time that if it's normal or not. If so the only time I would have any openings in my schedule would be by Saturday if so is that okay or should I cancel some stuff if I do need to take her in
 
I would have a vet check done. Eyes are considered urgent and I would personally rather have her checked to ensure she is not in any discomfort.

I hope she is ok
 
I'd pop her to the vet get them to have a good look in her eye. There could be a tiny piece of hay stuck in it, or an ulcer on the surface, both of which they can check for 👍
