Why is my stray kitten's third eyelid showing or eyes cloudy?

Question

The 2 Months old stray kitten in our locality. There is cover of something like cloudy colour on her eyes. It is wide on left eye and little less on right eye. What is it & what can be the cause ? Is it any type of infection ? Is there any serious issue ? What to do ? Waiting for helpful reply. Thanking you in advance !

What you are seeing is the third eyelid which is elevated. The third eyelid shows like this when the animal is sick and/or in pain. It is not necessarily an eye problem. It could be any illness causing this. The kitten really needs to see a vet if at all possible. ( https://www.tampabayvets.net/questions/cats-3rd-eyelid-showing/ )
