Gillu should be examined by your veterinarian, an experienced wildlife specialist or a veterinary ophthalmologist. He may have a corneal injury or other underlying condition. The vet can confirm if antibiotics are even needed. Inappropriate antibiotic use can lead to resistant bacteria and may complicate any underlying conditions. If Gillu is rubbing or pawing at the eye, an e-collar (cone) should be used until he sees the vet.
