More problems with Ginger

[rw3399]

Hi everyone! I've just has to take Ginger to the vets. I got this morning and her one eye was crusted. The vet said she has quite a large ulcer on it and has given antibiotic eye drops which are for rabbits. Has anyone heard of the - Tiacil. She reckons if the antibiotics don't work she would need surgery with a possibliity of losing the eye. If it came to that I think I would put her down because she's old and I don't think it would be fair especially as her legs don't work properly anyway :'(

She's 8. Her eye looked sore and crusty, vertually closed this morning but her eye looks open this evening. I hope that's a good sign!

Update on Ginger - eye is no longer crusty and is virtually open all the time. Now I can see a blueness ro her eye. Does anyone have any ideas? Could it be a catarat that caused the ulcer?
