  I am rabbit sitting and immediately noticed that one eye only looks like this. I texted my friend to see if it always looks like this because she hasn’t mentioned it. It doesn’t seem irritated or like it’s runny or anything. There are no emergency vets here that take rabbits on the weekend so I’m trying to decide whether I need to call the regular bunny vet and leave a message.

  This could be due to EC, a parasite. It’s a little hard to see in the picture though. How old is your rabbit, and did this occur very suddenly? Without any other symptoms I don’t think it’s an emergency but you should have your bun checked by a vet next week.

  That’s the issue, it isn’t my rabbit, I’m bun sitting. Still waiting to hear back whether his eye is always like this but I will ask her to take him in Monday if the Dr hasn’t already looked at this. I wasn’t aware e cuni could cause eye issues so thank you for the info!

  Ok I feel better, I found a picture she sent me in May where he’s looking straight at the camera but his eye is cloudy. I wouldn’t have noticed if I hadn’t been looking for it. Maybe it’s a cataract and she just didn’t mention having him examined or I forgot! But since this picture is from May at least I know this didn’t just suddenly develop. Thank you again for the response, I appreciate it! I will talk to her though to make sure to get Dr has examined him since this developed. We go to the same Dr and she’s very good with buns so I’m confident if he has been seen already then it’s ok.

  Could it be scar tissue? It looks uneven in the photo.
