thank you
i think it happened during an introduction session. my other bunny may have sprayed pee in his eye? i'm not sure
 
ok so how long could this wait he's had it for a few days
i called the emergency vet and they recommend seeing out regular vet if we can but i'm not sure how soon we can get an appointment in
 
also is there something i could buy from a pet store to help until i get to a vet

That looks like a prolapsed gland. It appears there is white cloudiness in the eye as well. This can be a sign of a corneal ulcer and infection. It's important to get your rabbit into the vet right away.

oh boy
we have a vet appointment for monday is he ok until then
 
Hopefully, if you aren't able to get in until then. I would make sure to monitor it for any changes and phone the vet office if there is any worsening.

Particularly keep a very close eye on that cloudiness. If that worsens too extensively, it could be the difference of only needing antibiotic eye drops to fix the problem, to having to have surgery to remove a badly infected eye. So definitely don't let that progress.

is there anything i can do at home to help his eye a bit? also his eyes are half blue so i'm not sure if maybe that's what your seeing or if they're actually cloudy. they look the same as they've been since i've gotten him imo but i have had him for under a month
 
good news ! the vet believes oliver just snagged his eye on something! also he has a mild case of conjunctivitis so he has eye drops for that !!
 
so um i think i'm just paranoid but does my other rabbit also have conjunctivitis

they aren't bonded so they aren't living together but they see each other through a mesh gate and share toys
