Default Re: Hamster left eye is cloudy

It is indeed cataracts. They said there's no swelling/damage to the eye which would signify injury/illness and that it could be from genetics. She's otherwise a completely healthy ham based on their observations. I'm still going to bring her to another vet that specializes in exotics to have work done to hopefully rule out diabetes etc. But have to wait til Monday since they're closed on Sundays. I was told it shouldn't effect her too much since it's only one eye and hamsters don't rely on eyesight much anyways but it's honestly a little disheartening. I really hope it's not anything more serious
