Hi all,
I do wildlife rescue and i am a wildlife carer for Wildlife Vic.
Yesterday i picked up a young bluey that had been attacked or injured in some way. It looks like birds have attacked it. Anyway, it has injuries to both eyes but the rest of the animal is fine.
It looks like it will lose both eyes, definatley one, possibly the other.
I've taken it to my local vet, who has little reptile experience, and he gave it Baytril and a very small dose of pain killer.
What do all the people on here think should be done? Should i take it back to the vet and send it on to Lizard heaven or should i wait and see it it comes good?
Keeping in mind that it has injuries to BOTH eyes with the chance that it will be blind in both eyes.
Please keep answers serious.
