I'm not even sure if this is a incredible emergency but I will let you all decide that.
Last night my chinchilla had something on his eye. Couldn't really tell what it was but me and my dad decided to use eye drops. A few months back the vet said we could use any kind of eye drops, even ones my family uses. So we used my moms. Immediately it looked like whatever was on his eye was washed out. But a bit of the drop got on his fur and he began to scratch at that spot and his eye for a while. My dad said maybe it stung slightly and that he'd be fine. But for alot of the night he held that eye shut and me being someone to worry I freaked out. Before bed and now this morning he has the eye open. Not fully all the way but most of the way and he will let me scratch around his neck and pet around his eye on the side near his ear. But the other side with the spot he rubbed at and that part of the eye, if I try he makes a small sound and steps back. My dad keeps saying its probably just sore now and since the eye looks fine it just needs a day or so to heal. And I hope its that easy.
So here I am seeking help.
