Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! It is hard to know what this may be without being able to evaluate the affected area. This could be due to an eye injury or conditions such as a corneal laceration, corneal ulcer, conjunctivitis, dry eye (also known as KCS), among many other conditions. I highly recommend that you have Toma evaluated by your veterinarian for further assessment and treatment. Further therapy would be based on the findings. Good luck and best wishes!
