The problem is that you don't know what caused the broken blood vessel, and it may be more than just a broken blood vessel. It concerns me that she is hiding; this is sometimes an indicator of pain. Is she eating ok? The reason I monition this is Joey had an eye ulceration, that wasn't noticeable, except he wouldn't eat, and didn't want to be around us. When I looked at his eye it was a little squinty and looked blood shot in the corner of it, but nothing too bad. I called the vet, and he said that I should bring him in immediately. They did a stain, and there was a scratch on the cornea. I later learned that this causes a great deal of pain. He said it was good that I brought him in right away because a scratch can lead to an infection very easily, that could lead to blindness. The cure was very easy, just some prescription ointment. But if she isn't eating, or is acting funny, I would go to an emergency vet. Good luck to you, I hope it isn't serious. |
