Question one of my piggy's eye seems abnormal

When she is awake, she seems closing her left eye halfway. When she is sleeping, she close her left eye. She left her right eye open almost all the time. Her left eye seems ok, you may call it a little watery, but is not obvious at all. Is there something wrong with her eye? Shall I seek vet help immediately? Or she just have some hay or betting poked her left eye and need some time to recover? Need help, very worried, thanks.

Re: one of my piggy's eye seems abnormal

One of mine shuts his right eye half way if I'm petting him or if he's dozing off. It's not uncommon for them to sleep with one eye open and one closed. If you feel like it's not "normal" and think something may be wrong then book a vet appointment ASAP to prevent damage to the eye.

If she is doing this all the time when you aren't handling her, her eye may or may not have an injury. Perhaps you should have her checked out by a vet just in case.
