Does anyone know what I can use to flush out a blocked tear duct?
Someone suggested Optrex, but I can't find that anywhere.

I need to know as soon as possible so I can help my girl.

Did you take her to a cavy savy vet? I have no idea what to flush a guinea pigs eye out with but how do you know that it's a blocked tear duct? Their eyes are very sensitive and you should probably see a vet. How is flushing it going to help a tear duct?

You need to most likely get your pig to a vet.

Sorry Shaina but your last post was unapproved because of the link. Everything was explained why in the pm you were sent.

Please read over this page: https://www.guinealynx.info/eyes.html. Your pig really needs to see the vet because it could be infection and not a blocked tear duct.
