Eye Health in Teddy Guinea Pigs

Did you know that eye care is an essential part of your Teddy guinea pig’s overall health and wellness? If your Teddy guinea pig appears to be having trouble with his eyes, call your vet to set up an exam. In general, a guinea pig’s eyes can come in a variety of colors including dark, dark with a ruby or red cast, and pink. It is also normal for an Teddy guinea pig’s eyes to have a milky white discharge which helps lubricate the eyes since guinea pigs keep their eyes open at all times. Signs of injury, infection or irritation include crusty eyes, watery eyes, cloudiness, receding eyes, protruding eyes, and even ulcerated eyes. Symptoms could also indicate something as simple as a scratch to the eye or be an early indication of an upper respiratory problem, tooth problems, dehydration and even diabetes. Contact your veterinarian Flat Rock, NC for more details.
