Well as I posted a few days ago, my recent rescue developed a film over his good eye (he only has 1 eye or so we thought!). I took him to the vet this morning and she removed what looked to be a film caused by an infection, still not sure how that happened but we got some amazing news: where we thought he only had 1 eye he actually has 2 and the vet managed to clean away about a years worth of shed and some pus and she expects him to regain about 40-50% of his sight back in that eye!!!!:yahoo:His eye is scarred, as the place I got him from did not know he even had an eye and because he always kept it closed, but he will be able to see again! He's been put on antibiotics and some eye drops to keep the eyes moist and he's expected to make a full recovery. This is the reason I do rescue, it's soooooo worth it!!!!:biggrin:

He's doing better, still won't open his eyes for very long but he is opening them. He's eating and drinking fine and he fights me tooth and nail when he has to have his meds so I know hes feeling better. Thanks for everyones comments!!!:)
