Zsa-Zsa's eye

[Miss Z]

Thanks for the sites Alyssa. Earlier today I was looking at the second site you posted. Even though I am worried, I noticed for the first time today that some of the golden is beginning to come back in her eye. She has bumped her eye before and it does take a while to heal, but this one is so much worse. My mum has just gone out to dinner so I will show her this thread tomorrow.

I've had a good look at her eye myself. It did cross my mind that it's a ruptured blood vessell, but I found some pics of that on the internet and it's not really like what she's got. I would post pics but my dad still hasn't uploaded my digital camera software, he just can't be bothered. Dads

I will try to get her to the vets. Although I'm going to watch her very closely as I think it is healing.

Happy Zsa-Zsa eye is better!

Don't you still have the PDSA (People's Dispensary for Sick Animals) in the UK?
It was available when I lived there 20 or so years ago. They help people with financial issues around regular vet bills, for much lower fees or for free. I'm sure if you went along there on your own with her and explained how your Mum feels, they would at least look to see if it was anything serious that would not heal without intervention. Wear your oldest daggiest jeans and jumper and look really sad, I'm sure they'll help you out!

Yes, we still have the PDSA, although I'm not so sure where our nearest centre is. Money's not an issue at all, my mum's just wary of vet bills Hope I haven't made it sound like we're poor

Sorry, I forgot to update this thread, as I updated it on her other accident thread. Zsa-Zsa was taken to the vets and given eye drops. It seems to be healing up quite well and the redness has almost gone. Thanks though for the suggestion.

LOL, I've probably grown out of my old jeans by now and wearing jumpers is a definite no-no for me
