        My 9 month old lop girl has had loss of hair around the eyes, it’s also around the other eye as well.

          Excess moisture/fur loss around the eyes can come from a variety of reasons.

          A tooth root can be growing through the jaw, putting pressure on the back of the eye ball.

          There could be sinus issues causing tear production.

          There could be a skin infection on her face.

          Because a lot of items can cause this, it’s best you see a vet as soon as you can do professionally assess the cause and proper solution.

          Do you notice the fur loss anywhere else, and how are her poops, appetite, and activity levels?

            Is there wetness?

              Adding to the list of possible reasons for hair loss there; overgrooming from another rabbit.

              I see from other posts you have a pair of girls. Do they live together? If so, does the other groom this one a lot?
