It looks as Bambam is suffering from a severe eye infection, it is relatively common in dogs. you will need to take him to the vet the first chance you get today, the vet will check the eyes, if it is indeed a simple eye infection your vet will prescribe an antibiotic eye drops that will probably solve the problem in no time.
