Kitten's eye keeps closing and she's sneezing a lot, is it serious?

Question

My kitten;Lucy's right eye keeps shutting, there doesn't seem to be any eye goop or anything on or in her eye... I've cleaned it when it happens but I'm very worried since she sneezes a lot

Dr. Melanie, BVSc MS · Accepted Answer

Lucy could have something in her eye causing her squint, or her eye may be sensitive to light. I would have this checked out by a vet in the morning, as any eye problem should be checked out promptly. Leaving it untreated can lead to vision loss. Given that she is sneezing a lot, it could be a respiratory infection causing the issues with her eye as well. The vet can diagnose what is going on, and can treat her for it. Best of luck.
