Care begins with isolating the sick bird and disinfecting the cage, then gently cleaning the eye and applying bird-specific drops such as bird-specific eye drops or human erythromycin ointment—treating both eyes even if only one is infected. Serious cases need antibiotics under a vet's guidance. Daily hygiene, clean food and water, and regular check-ups are the best prevention.
