My Dutch Rabbit Oreo, has developed something wrong with her eyes that have made them covered in a goopy gel like liquid on and around her eyes on the eye lid. Im unsure what this is or what caused it but she seems more passive then before because of it and less responsive like my other Rabbit Nala. She still moves around and responds to food and stuff I put in the cage, but unlike in the past where she was very much lively she stays in the corner now and seems completely unaware of my presence even if my hand infront of her by a few inches. This is a the moment not really worrying me but since I don't know what it is or what could have even caused it, it does give grounds for concern because I hope that it isn't the beginning of something worse.

If the goopy part is cloudy- whitish there's probably an infection going on.
It sounds like you will probably need to go to the vet could be conjunctivitis. In the mean time you could make an eye wash and clean her eyes out. For eyewash I boil a cup of water, put in 1/4 teaspoon of uniodized salt or sea salt, stir and add 4 bags of black tea- let it sit so its extra strong. Then I drip into eyes by squeezing a soaked cotton bud.
