Dust causing eye irritation

<< < (2/2)

Flint:
Please keep us updated and stay in touch. Thinking of you both. What country are you based in?

Renier:
Thank you. I am in South Africa.
This antibiotics also had no effect. The course finishes on Saturday, so I skipped his baths. That does not help.
Things will have to go back to normal on Saturday.
There does not seem to be anything else I can do.
Maybe nature will take its course and naturally heal the eye over time. It's the only bit of hope I have.

GrayRodent:
Bacterial infections of the eye in chinchillas normally respond rapidly to antibiotics within 2-3 days. It's good that you are getting a culture and identifying the type of bacteria. That's the only thing you can do.
As far as health make sure nutrition is good, copious amounts of grass hay available, room temperature is around 22C, noise levels are low in the room, consistent sleep wake times.
