I have an 2 year old english lop doe that suddenly developed a drooping lower eyelid, her third eyelids are bit relaxed as well. Is it a serious symptom? Is there something that can be done for this? I snapped some pics today, but it was worse yesterday.
I have heard of Horner's Syndrome, but it's hard to find info about rabbits.
Do you think that's what this is?
I had another doe (1.5 yrs old)with this same issue a few weeks ago, it seemed to have gone away after a day or two, I thought that maybe it was from one of her kits scratching her eye. Then she just died one night. (The kits were 6 1/2 weeks) No visible wounds, infections or anything. The weather was in the upper 70s to lower 80.
The kits have all been ok.
Any suggestions? I'm kinda worried about her.
This blurry pic shows it at its worst
