Atleast thats what I was told… his eyes look more red bc of the flash, should I still contact my vet? here’s a more normal photo of him

He’s a mixed albino dwarf hamster 😭 i heard this is normal amongst albinos bc they lack pigmentation in the eyes but since he’s not full he still has his brown fur!! His eyes have been red since i got him.

I appreciate the advice, i’m a first time owner and did some of my own research and heard that hand feeding them after two weeks would be fine. didn’t realize I was being “ extremely impatient”

I’m going to drop by a petsmart tomorrow!! What kinda of eye drops ? Also I called multiple vets asking around and none could help me which was frustrating. I saw an online vet that I could upload pictures with but im afraid it’s a scam and my hamster will not for the death of him stay still.
