While petting Wick, he had his head down as usual, but sat upright a bit, usually like he’s alert about something. He started to make a few audible grind teeth motions, so I inspected him a little and saw there was a few strands of hair on his right eyeball, covering his pupil. Wick is calm to me prying at him since the beginning, so I proceeded to gently manuveur his eye lids so the hair clump would move to an eyelid so I could get it out. Eventually, I got it to the top eye lid and pushed his upper eye lid up so I could get the hair propped up and out. I got out the hair clump and Wick stopped grinding and he’s currently doing his usual things. I did notice that when I pulled the upper lid up, some of the white of his eyeball is blue/grey. I took a peak at the other eye and didn’t seem to see the same coloring. Is this coloration at the back of the eyeball normal? It’s not visible unless you pull back the upper right eye lid. I don’t know how long the hair clump had irritated him. That was definitely the first time I’ve seen it there because it was a significant size in comparison to his eye. Just a few strands in a curly q. All out now.
