Poor Lilly! This brown color of the white of her eye could be due to blood. I would have her seen by a vet right away. The eye is such a delicate and important structure that any problem with it should be considered an emergency. That's because leaving it untreated can lead to vision loss. It could be she injured her eye causing it. The vet can diagnose what is causing the brown color of her eye and can prescribe treatment for it if needed.
