Observe whether there is white swelling in the eyes. If there is white eye disease, it is mostly caused by unclean water. Don't use direct tap water, use water exposed to the sun 1 day or above, and keep the water temperature at 25-27 degrees. If there were no sick turtles, they would naturally eat them. I also keep turtles. At present, I have two grass turtles, 1 Brazilian turtle, with white eye disease.

Etiology: Due to water quality problems, eyes are stimulated, turtles frequently rub their eyes with their front paws, or the stocking density is too high, and turtles scratch and hiss each other, resulting in eye injuries, bacterial invasion and infection. More common in water turtles, highly contagious.

Diagnosis: in the early stage of white eye disease, the eyes produce a small amount of secretions, inflammation, congestion and swelling. In the middle and late stage, the conjunctiva is completely infected and adhered, the cornea is eroded, the instantaneous membrane is seriously infected, congested, whitish and thickened, the eyeball is covered, eyes are closed, people refuse to eat or even drink water, and they are mentally exhausted.

First of all, to raise turtles, we must first "raise water"

Carrying water: what we call "trapped water" Why is the water "sleepy"? Because there is chlorine in tap water. Chlorine disinfection is basically harmless to people. However, the chloric acid and hypochlorous acid in the water can easily stimulate the soft-shelled turtle and infect it with bacteria, so it is best to expose it to the sun for a period of time to make the chlorine in it fully volatilize.

Also, the water temperature is kept at 25-27 degrees. If there is no disease, the tortoise will naturally eat.

The treatment of white eye disease in Brazil (all tried by myself)

First of all, one of the treatments for young turtles.

1, make strong tea. This is a turtle seller. )

2, experience: I tried this method, soaked for a night, Shun Shun's eyes miraculously recovered, but this method sometimes failed, sometimes repeatedly.

Second, the second treatment plan for the little turtle

1, combined with chloramphenicol eye drops, three times a day (according to the severity of the disease, but not more than five times), used alone, remember not to avoid light, and put it in a dry place.

2. Little turtle needs water very much, unlike chinemys reevesii, it needs to soak more times every day (about five times, especially at noon in summer).

If your appetite is normal, feed water. If you have no appetite, you need artificial feeding, but pay attention to the range. It is best to use turtle food during illness (my family usually doesn't touch artificial turtle food).

4. One week is a course of treatment. If the tortoise recovers quickly, use a course of treatment. If you don't improve, you must change.

5. Experience: My family's Youyou gave it the first method when it was not working, so I tried to give it chloramphenicol, and the effect was obvious. I was stubborn when feeding, and I felt that I would rather die than touch turtle food.

Third, the third treatment plan for the little turtle

1, feeding alone, soaking in furacilin solution for 30min, once in the morning and once in the evening.

2, the eyes still need to drop chloramphenicol three times a day.

3, according to the method of 2 feeding.

4. Experience: This is a classmate's turtle. When I first arrived at my house, I was as thin as a mummy and very difficult to swallow. I had to soak the turtle food with egg yolk powder and feed it slowly. After two weeks, this little guy finally recovered, and his eye disease was cured, and the rest was nutrition.

Figure 1: In 2005, Miao got white eye disease and began to die.

Suggestion: 1. Antibiotics for injection. Apply eye ointment to your eyes.

2, heat dry culture, soaking in water 2-3 times a day.

3. The original feeding box was well disinfected.

Figure 2: Due to bacterial infection, the eyes are swollen, slightly rotten and white. Dry the water and take a bath twice a day. Apply erythromycin eye ointment or chlortetracycline eye ointment to eyes. It doesn't improve in 5 days, so oral antibiotics are recommended.

Figure 3: Congestion of fundus, which may be caused by external pressure, mainly depends on self-regulation, and usually uses eye drops and eye ointment at night.

Fig. 4: Symptoms: Little Burmese star can't open his left eye and can't see.

The eyes are a little sunken, and the right eye is normal! My mouth has been drooling, I eat very little, and my limbs are still strong. Suggestion: Take azithromycin orally for 5 days first. If you get better, take azithromycin orally for 2-3 days after stopping taking the medicine for 2 days. If there is no curative effect, you can consider using antibiotics for injection for treatment.

External use: drop eye drops during the day and apply eye ointment at night.

If the turtle doesn't eat, you should first raise the temperature to 25 degrees, and the water level should be added to the edge of the turtle shell. Don't cross the turtle's back. You can add some glucose powder and egg yolk to the water. The tortoise will drink water even if it doesn't eat. Also drink some egg yolk water and glucose water. This is my way.
