Hi all , dittos ulcerated receding eye is still no better, he has now had 2 visits to the vets and 2 different eye drops aswell as an antibiotic injection, a painkilling injection and his eye is no different. I'm cleaning out his cage everyday to ensure no germs get into the eye, I'm applying the eye drops as instructed after cleaning away all discharge from the eye. His teeth have been xrayed and are fine, he is eating well and seems happy enough but i can see the ulcer on the eyeball and the eye is receding... Ditto squints alot in that eye so it is obviously irratating for him... I'm seriously thinking about requesting the vet remove the eye to prevent anymore suffering to ditto.. What do you guys advise I'm at the end of my tether with it :'(
 
I am really sorry to hear this. I hope somebody will be able to offer you advice.
