  Hello, we have female rabbit that has an eye problem. She also has a bony lump above the eye, on top of the head, that may or may not be linked.
  We have been to two recommended rabbit vets who do not know what the problem is and say they have not seen anything like it.
  The one vet gave antibiotics, which did nothing, and the other said there was nothing wrong with the eye itself so antibiotics were of no use, and offered to take x-rays but said they really would be of no use.
  She also said the bony lump could be an enclosed abcess, and unlikely to be a tumor, but could be.
  So I am asking if anyone knows what this is, (we already have plenty of guesses), but it would be nice to know if anyone recognizes this eye problem.

  You said she has an eye problem and a bony lump but didn’t describe the eye problem. If you posted a pic, it isn’t showing up.

  Thanks for letting me know, I thought I had uploaded it but I had not done it correctly.

  Could be syphilis or an abscess. The “bony” lump makes me think more abscess. I would have the x-rays done, you might be able to see if there is a tooth root problem or not (which could lead to an abscess).

  Poor bunny. That looks really sore.
  
  Makes me wonder how rabbit savyy these vets are. It doesn’t seem like they were very helpful. I really hope you can get help for your bun soon.
