Perhaps you can see how his right eye is just a film in this picture- has anybody seen something like this before.

No, if you see it in real life, it is almost like a membrane across the eye. Apparently, one of the newer vets spent weeks putting drops in until he was told Jimmy's eye had always been like this. There is no normal look about it at all- just like the 3rd membrane has covered any damage that has occured.

Bless him, he is lovely, the blind siamese I had, eyes were like that, and it was caused by a blow to the head....

I've never seen anything like that, farthing. Poor little guy. When Misty went blind her eyes were perfectly normal except for completely enlarged pupils.
