Default Re: Mousse and Her Eyes

Treatment and care will obviously be up to the vets. It may just be an infection, which would require antibiotics. If it is glaucoma, there isn't a fix, other than surgery to remove the eyes, but your vet may prescribe eye drops.

If she does go blind, there shouldn't be any need for changes to her cage or routine; in fact, keeping everything the same will be more important. Hamsters 'see' primarily with their nose and whiskers, so the loss of what little sight they have wont affect her quality of life.
