  Hi!
  
  Just noticed today that my 2 y.o. lop bunny’s right eye is watery. At first i thought it was her face molting and the aspect of fur was different, but then, later, i saw it a bit wet. It’s not crusty or irritated, haven’t seen her scratching it, i don’t know if her eyelid is swollen (pinned a pic) and she’s not with her eye closed or half-shutted. Drinking, eating, pooping, weight and binkying are pretty normal.
  
  It never happened before, back in August she treated sinusitis and some hay allergies on vet, but she hadn’t watery eyes. I talked to my vet today but haven’t had any answers so far. Does anyone knows what it can be and what can i do until i can reach the vet?
  
  Thank you!

  If nothing else seems off, then it could just be that she got something in that eye. You could try rinsing it with saline (like for humans) to see if that helps. If it persists or gets worse, then you’ll know it’s something else.

    Thank you! Did that last night and today she woke up perfectly, i think she popped it on hay probably, now i’m storing it in a box with a little hole so i can avoid this kind of accident! Maybe i was just overwhelming hahahaha. Thank you again!

    Just took this photo today, i feel like it’s a healing scratching mark, since it’s not watery anymore and she wasn’t with a closed/half shuted eye. (Had to put the new image on Google Drive because i can’t pin anymore).

  It looks like it was irritated, but it does look better. My guess is something go in there or she was poked. Maybe by some hay.
