Hamster's Eye is (swollen?) shut

[Member ID2]

I'm glad the antibiotics are working and Olivia's eye is improving.

When i took my Syrian to the vet with an eye problem they put drops of dye in his eye then checked the eye under a lamp, uv i guess. They told me that he didn't have any tumors so maybe that was a tumor test.

It didn't cost anywhere near what you paid though.

It was £49 for examination and test then another £14 for the antibiotic ointment. Around 80 US dollars in total.

I go to a general vet who has very good hamster knowledge. The vets at the big exotics hospital charge nearly three times as much.
