Weepy eyes

I have a light sussex bantam who has very weepy eyes for a couple of weeks now.  I have been bathing them in cold tea and some times bicarbonate of soda also.  I thought it was helping but they got worse again.  Vet prescribed antibiotic ointment for eyes but now she seems worse.  Cannot see to eat or drink.  Just pecking randomly until she hits it right.  The eye seems swollen in the morning but it seems to me that it is a build up of liquid.  I have moved her to a coop of her own because others now picking on her.  I am going back to vet tonight but wondered if anyone else has had this problem.  There is no wheezing but I do think there is a bit of a smell.  Any advice would be appreciated

D - thank you for your comments.  Weeping of eyes has stopped but she is still not seeing properly and they are crusty looking which makes it sound like yours.  What did the Vet give you to treat their eyes or did they come okay themselves.  I have stopped putting ointment in because it was very strong but I continue to bathe her eyes with cold tea.  She is eating and drinking though again still "shooting in the dark".  I would be interested to know of your treatment

As Joyfull has said it is best to get the bird to the vet. My two which came down with it got through by theirselves, it took the first bird  tow or three weeks and the second only a week. I only spoke to the vet after they had both come through and so didn't get any treatment - for better or for worse. Again, as Joyfull said there is ample amount of antibiotics that the vet will prescribe if he thinks it is mycoplasma. Was it only one or both eyes affected? I was lucky, my two only had one eye affected and so could still eat! I hope this helps, although I doubt its what you wanted to hear, but I hope your bird gets through one way or another!

Awww hope she gets better soon
