Trouble :Female: 2 years old :Britania Petite mix

Just today I noticed Troubles right eye was red and irritated looking, as compared to her usually dark brown, almost black eye. And it sort of has a cloudy white spot in the pupil part ofit.Shes acting normally, eating, jumping around. And isnt head shy about me touching the eye and examining it.No discharge is visable from it either.

I was just wondering if anyone elsehas had a similar problem before? I think shes too young to be getting cataracts. Maybe she just scratced it?

Added a picture.

I would take her toa rabbit knowledgeablevet. It could be a corneal ulcer and even if it is a scratch she most likely will need antibiotic drops .

The vet can stain her eye and examine it for ulcers or abrasions.
 
Her eye was stained at the vets. They didnt see any abbrasion on the eye itself, and she said blood vessels were forming in it, which means its starting to heal- whatever it is. She has to have medicated eye drops twice a day and going back for a check up next week.
