Thank you so much for this advice. We are using aspen shaving bedding. Is that okay?

Thankfully by morning her eye was normal and open, so we are waiting to see how she is going.

I get the impression she was very tired, and her schedule seems to be that she gets very active around 1am in the morning and then goes to sleep around 9am, so if we see her in the day or she is disturbed by lights or comings and goings she is quite tired. It may have been sleep in her eye?

Still working all of this out! She is lovely and quite small, so just a little one.
