Hello. Welcome to the site. I'm sorry about your kitty. I would take your kitty to the vet right away. The problem with eye issues in cats is that if gone untreated they could go blind. There are over 10 common eye disorders in cats that could be causing this problem. The most common and very treatable condition is conjunctivitis. Hopefully, this is all it is. If so the vet will give you an ointment to put on your cat's eyes. If this is not the problem the vet will treat it occording to what it is.
Please take your kitty to the vet. I would never play the 'sit and wait game' when it comes to any animlas' eyes, as blindness can occur if gone untreated.

It's fine that you couldn't post picks as eye problems need to be treated by a vet. So, even if we saw the pics you would still have to see a vet regardless. Vets do take payment plans (if money is an issue). Keep us posted.

I agree with getting him to a vet. If money is an issue your local humane society may be able to offer you some help.
