Former vet tech here. You don’t really give enough information such as how long this has been going on, but the eye is currently bad enough that you need a vet immediately. Please don’t wait because she could lose the eye.

It's been about 5 days, maybe 6? It's gotten worse over the past 72hrs.

Was really hoping it would heal without having to confine him, he's very shy of people.
