Thank you for submitting your question regarding Bella. She will need to see a veterinarian. She may have a scratch across the surface of her eye known as a corneal ulcer. This is common with a certain type of eye infection in kittens. A drop of dye will be placed on her eye to look for a defect. Based on these results, treatment can be prescribed. I hope this information helps!
