Treating Kittens with Eye Discharge?

I recently had a momma kitty give birth to a litter of 5. She had them outside and it took me a couple days to find them. I finally found them and had found that one of them had died. I brought them inside and I am not completely sure if it was the first night or the next, but another one had died while inside. They are a little over 3 weeks old now and there are now 3 of them. One of them had one single crusty eye and now that it's been a few days all three have at least one crusty eye. The original crusty eyed kitten has both eyes crusted shut and the other two kittens just have one eye crusted shut. I don't have the money to bring all or even one kitten into the vet right now so I was hoping someone could let me know of inexpensive medicine or at home remedies to help. Thank you in advance.

Kittens can go blind from eye infections. Contact the ASPCA if money is an issue or talk to your vet about a reduced rate.

USE WARM WATER AND A SOFT CLOTH AND THEN RINSE IT OFF THE AREA OF THE SKIN AND EYE AND CONTACT THE ANIMAL SHELTER FOR HELP WITH THE INFECTION OF THE KITTEN.

I have been doing this and none of them have crusty eyes anymore. Thank you. And sadly, my humane society is run my volunteers so they dont have a vet anymore and its $20 to even drop off animals

The crusty eyes will spread to all the kittens. You can contact your local humane society for reduced rate Vet visits. Or you can surrender the kittens to the humane society or a no kill rescue group. They will be treated and put up for adoption.

You can try home remedies but the Vet will know what type of bacteria it is and what antibiotic you need to stop it. Do it quickly as this disease can leave the kittens blind if not treated.
