I m going to make sure if my Brazilian tortoise has white eye or not!

Diagnosis. The eyes of the sick turtle are inflamed and congested, and the eyes are swollen. The cornea and nasal mucosa of the eye are eroded due to inflammation of the eye, the outside of the eyeball is covered by white secretions, and there is inflammation inside the eye.

Sick turtles often rub their eyes with their forelimbs, move slowly, and no longer feed. In severe cases, the sick turtle loses its eyesight, and eventually the turtle becomes thinner and weaker and dies. Some turtles have only one disease at the beginning of the disease, and if no action is taken, symptoms will soon develop in the other eye.

Prophylaxis. 1. Strengthen feeding management before and after wintering, and when you start feeding, strengthen nutrition and enhance disease resistance.

2. Disinfection of turtle raising utensils, soaking the glass tank and aquarium of turtle raising with 10% salt water for 30 minutes, and then raising turtles after soaking them with water.

3. Soaking in penicillin or potassium permanganate solution is not only a preventive measure, but also can be used as an early **. Juvenile turtles should use 20 milliliter concentration, and juvenile turtles should use 30 milliliter concentration for adult turtles, and the length of immersion time depends on the water temperature. Soak once a day (40 minutes) for 3-5 days if necessary.

**。1. Feed more animal liver.

2. Disinfection. Livano; Also known as Rayver. The surgical drug is soaked into a 1% aqueous solution once a day, 40 to 60 seconds at a time. Even 3 to 8 days.

3. Soak in furacillin (or furazolidone) solution. Cone turtles use 20 mg at a concentration. Juvenile turtles use 30 mg liters of adult tortoises as young tortoises. 40 minutes at a time, once a day for 3 to 5 days.

4. Daknin eye ointment.

In addition, chloramphenicol eye drops can be very good for white eye disease.

Other diseases related to the eye.

1.Inability to open the eyelids:

**: Mainly due to dry environment.

**: Bathe and increase humidity.

2.Swelling of the eyelids (swollen eyelids):

**: Vitamin A deficiency, or exposure to foreign bodies.

**: 1) Wash the eye area with sterilized water;

2) If vitamin A deficiency is suspected, water-soluble vitamin A can be applied topically or intramuscularly once a week.

If you've been dry, you're likely to become dehydrated and damage your eyes. Brazilian turtles can hibernate in water.

First of all, white eye is certainly not a tan. So I don't think the chances of white eye disease are very high. My tortoise is really active most of the time, but sometimes it can't keep its eyes open, so it should be fine.

Also, How many degrees Celsius (room temperature) do you have there? If the room temperature is warm, you probably won't close your eyes. The main thing is to see if the turtle is alive or not, and if it is active, it is no problem.

Pay attention to frequent water changes, even if it is not white eye disease, it must indicate that the water quality is not very good, a little infected? Let's take a look at the landlord for a while.

Symptoms of white eye disease.

1. The turtle's eyes are swollen, inflamed, ulcerated, with increased eye discharge and itching;

2. The tortoise has signs of lack of energy, slow movement, and reluctance to eat;

3. Some turtles will have respiratory symptoms, accompanied by difficulty breathing, and open their mouths to breathe;

4. The sick turtle begins to be reluctant to go into the water, and its weight becomes lighter and even has symptoms of blindness.

Medication recommendations. 1. Apply chloramphenicol eye drops or antibiotic eye drops to the eye area of the sick turtle once a day in the morning and once in the evening;

2. Change the water frequently, try to use cool and white water or less alkaline water, and add 1:500 oxytetracycline to the water for medicinal bathing;

3. Clean up the eye secretions of sick turtles every day;

4. An appropriate amount of animal liver can be fed, which is rich in vitamin A and can provide nutrients for eye recovery.

Turtle white eye disease refers to the secretion of some white things in the eyes, and the eyes will be a little red and swollen, and most turtles with this disease will often wipe their eyes with their hands. If it's a water turtle (such as a Brazilian turtle is more likely to get eye disease): it's usually because of the water quality!

Because it is often soaked in water with poor water quality, over time, it is easy to get eye inflammation. Generally speaking, go to the pharmacy to buy a chloramphenicol or erythromycin eye drops, drop them in clean water in the morning and evening, it can be slowly absorbed, and if it is serious, drop it directly in the eyes, just one drop, not too much, bask in the sun for about 20 minutes every day, and play a sterilizing role. In addition, note that the water level of the tap water should generally not be higher than it, so that it can poke its head out to breathe, if the water level is deep, it is best to make a staircase to give it a chance to climb to the water, change the water twice a day, especially after each feeding or pooping!

It's not easy. (The above is my experience in raising Brazilian turtles for many years, and turtle lovers, I hope to give more love to your turtles, and they will get better soon.) Now I have a yellow-headed tortoise (i.e., a Burmese tortoise) and I've been healthy since I didn't have white eye.

Even if it is, it is enough to use chloramphenicol. Tortoises are generally less susceptible to eye disease. Don't use other antibiotics or something, the dosage is not good, and soon the turtle will die under your hands...

Dear, if a turtle suffers from white eye, its eyes will not be opened, and white things will flow out. This is mainly due to the poor water quality, which causes the disease when the turtle wipes its eyes with its forelimbs. After the onset of the disease, it needs to be carried out in time**, you can apply antibiotic ointment to its eyes, 1-2 times per part, and inject penicillin in severe cases, in addition, you can also soak and disinfect with potassium permanganate solution, soak for 20 minutes each time.

smile] asked. The grass turtle is just swollen and white in the eye socket, is it sick.

Dear, are there any symptoms that the teacher told you? If there is, it is white eye disease, according to the method that the teacher said**oh [smile].

Hello, because seeing that you did not rate me last time, I am very concerned about your experience. If you are satisfied with my service, I hope you can give a thumbs up! If there is a problem, I am always waiting for you. I wish you a happy life and a happy life!

Around December last year, I found that Brazil, which had been raised for 2 years, closed his eyes and couldn't break open, thinking that it would be good after winter, and I didn't care that it was basically in a state of death at the end of January, and it didn't react and wouldn't move! Both eyes were white, red and swollen, and I began to get anxious and began to register for "Baidu Tieba" for help! Knowing that this is called "white eye disease", some of the methods introduced by everyone say that erythromycin eye ointment should be smeared!

Some ask for chloramphenicol eye drops! Some want to soak potassium permanganate! Bubble oxytetracycline with some!

Some of the bubbles are furanculin! I just went to the pharmacy and bought erythromycin eye ointment, chloramphenicol eye drops, and oxytetracycline, but I don't know that, I'm dizzy now! How???

So I chose my own judgment! Since redness and swelling is inflammation, it must be anti-inflammatory, how can I soak in water again? If you soak it again, it will definitely fester!

I ruled out the bubble potion first! I chose to drop chloramphenicol drops 3 times a day, after 5 minutes let the eye drops enter my eyes, use a cotton swab to gently smear erythromycin eye ointment on both eyes, once in the morning and evening, no need to pick up the white pus, it will be slowly absorbed. ok！

Place in a dark place after each application and let it absorb the medicine slowly! 2-3 days, take a small amount of purified water, add 3 1 tablet of soil enzyme to 400ml of water, and give it water for 15 minutes, it will drink water, and at the same time will ingest soil enzyme to achieve the anti-inflammatory effect in the body 15 minutes later, pick it up and dry it In early February, its left eye slowly broke open I knew that my method was working Continue to do this, every time I take medicine, I tell it to be strong and live, everything will be fine. At the end of February, the left eye %90 was good, but the right eye was still not getting better, and it was already completely white, and someone told me that if I turned white, I was blind I was so anxious that I started asking in the group again.

The answer is still a different one I still didn't give up when I was desperate and continued to deal with it in the same way On March 8, when I came back from Hong Kong to help it with medicine, I saw that its right eye was also open! My tears of excitement are about to come out, so touched, I reaffirm my approach! It has continued until now, its eyes are bright, and the right side is seriously red, and the cornea is red, and everything else is fine!

It's also very lively, crawling everywhere, and I still give it eye drops now, thank God! I've been busy for the past 4 months!!

It can be determined that it is not a normal phenomenon, and it is necessary to give **. Many of the signs of the turtle's diseases are reflected in the eyes. Check other feeding conditions to find out other treatments.

How can you tell if a turtle has white eye? The master turtle breeder teaches you how to identify white eye disease.

White eye disease is now unable to break open the eyes.

It is not a white eye disease, it is a symptom of a turtle catching a cold or getting on fire, it is recommended to buy a heating rod for tropical fish, and keep the water temperature in winter.

At about 18 degrees, it is best to have a suspension area, so that the turtle can rest properly, and then put 1mg of penicillin powder according to 5 liters of water, and the white eye disease will subside in a few days, and finally I want to say that winter is coming, and the turtle is going to hibernate, if you want it to eat, protect.

Hold on to the water temperature, and it will start eating.

My friend's Brazilian turtle also had this disease, and now it is cured, you go to the pharmacy to buy potassium permanganate tablets, which are very cheap, about five yuan, clean the fish tank thoroughly, pay attention to the oxidizing properties of potassium permanganate, do not contact it directly**. There are more bacteria in the water, and the water used by the turtle is best used in the sun for a day. If you are worried that it is thirsty, you should soak it for about an hour every day, or usually put a little less water but don't go over its head.

I hope your little turtle will be soon**
