Life happens. Accidents happen. If you accidentally get shampoo or some other cleaning or bathing solution into your cavy’s eyes, call your vet right away. Never take chances with your cavy’s eyes. When you talk with your vet be sure to have the cleaner in hand so you can tell him what chemicals are involved. You may also need to call poison control for additional treatment suggestions. Your vet may instruct you to flush or rinse your Albino guinea pig’s eyes with cool water right away to prevent burning or other serious damage. You will most likely need to take your cavy into the vet for an examination to ensure the eyes have not been damaged. To help prevent future accidents, always remove your guinea pig from his cage when cleaning it. When giving your cavy a bath try to avoid washing his face and eyes.
