4090. REYNA. A rabbit has a watery eye. Epiphora.

A rabbit has a watery eye. Epiphora.




















Tears overflow right eye downwards to the nose
What are the causes?
1. Usually two main causes - the corneal or obstruction of the
lacrimal drainage 



Eye irrigation of the right eye, to flush away foreign bodies like grass seeds and dirt under general anaesthesia.
In-patient for 4 days. Went home. 


"Doc, look at the eye! No green corneal ulcer, right?" my assistant said as she saw no green stain on the cornea.
.














UPDATE ON 25 FEB 2020
The owner said the rabbit had recovered from the eye ulcer.
He had passed away as he was aged at 8 years.
