What is this?

[ShadedNightRabbitry]

It popped up in a litter out of my buck that a friend had bought (I now have him back and want to know what to expect when breeding him.) One eye on one rabbit of four.

Soooo, which eye problem is it?

 

[Jack]

that haze, looks like a cataract

Yes, I agree with Jack.
I most definitely appears to be a Cataract.

Soooo Moon/Wall Eye? I realized it was a cataract, I'm just trying to put the other term to it, lol!

 

[Pickles]

I think its more than just a cataract... I think he is blind in that eye.

 

[Shara]

no clue what its called, but are you sure you want to breed that in?

 

[DevonW]

Cataract chances are it's genetic and he's probably blind in that eye. I dealt with it last winter out of a pet only doe someone decided to breed. The kit acted fine for a while but eventually it got to the point where he would be startled if his good eye didn't see you coming and he would attack.

My old doe, Patches, developed something like that in one eye. I assumed it was a cataract at the time... but a few months later it disappeared and I could tell she had vision in that eye. I think now she had some kind of eye infection that she fought off, but I admit I do not know for sure.

I'm still going to play around with the sire. I've NEVER had something like this pop up, and I have no idea if it came from my buck or not, especially since I don't know the doe or her lines.
