Sounds like it's probably a defect and there's not a whole lot you can do about it. Pictures would definitely be helpful. If it is something environmental, I would think a vet would really be the only choice to do a close physical exam of the eye in question, but in all probability the eye is likely already non-functional.

Post some pics and we'll see if we can tell for sure.

I agree with Brian, if it has been like that since birth its probably a defect, see if you can get pics and sorry you are having problems with the baby!

A little too fuzzy to really tell. Try putting some reg eye drops in it and maybe some terramycin on it. If it can blink and open it's eye I think it'll be fine but I can't really tell with those pics. Sorry.

Sounds like It'll be ok. Remember don't use the "allergy" eyedrops make sure they are the reg "natural tears". Good luck.
