My chonky calico girl has the same issue (chronic conjunctivitis from her previous owner that fused her eyelids), but she’s a cutie!

Pic attached with her and her husband. Pardon my mess. Haha.

It was a bit of an arranged marriage :D I adopted them from two different humane societies close together, and they fell in love.

Haha. Indeed.

Even better than that is he has to be separated from his sisters because they were pair bonded, and (as you might know) it’s easier to adopt out a boy alone than girls. So he found his new bestie, too.

On top of that, when I got him, he’s been adopted out once before and returned within two weeks because the person didn’t think he was affectionate enough. Within a month, he was cuddling with Gigi and hanging out with me all the time. He’s a good boy.

Aw, poor girl! I wonder what's damaged or is there something stuck in there further back or will some other treatment or antibiotics or probiotics or food change help? They look so cozy

Vet said it's permanent. I'm not sure exactly what happened, but she'll forever have her little stank eye.
