My cat’s inner eye area is red and swollen and the eye won’t open — what’s wrong?
Red, swollen eyes that won't open can have many causes, including respiratory infection, allergy, trauma, or eye disease. If the cat also sneezes or has nasal discharge, take it to a vet to check for herpes, calicivirus, mycoplasma, or chlamydia. If it recently touched chemicals, pollen, or new food, it may be allergic — remove the source and seek veterinary care for anti-allergy medication. If other causes are ruled out, it is likely conjunctivitis from trauma or infection, treatable with neomycin sulfate or hydrocortisone acetate eye drops plus antibiotic ointment.
