Hamster pup has only one eye open?!?

Answers:
Your cousin probably severely damaged your hamster's eye. It will probably end up blind now, or severely disablitied. Your cousin was really stupid and selfish doing that - it's a baby hamster. You should let it develop by itself at it's own pace.
Poor thing.
I think that the other eye will open slowly. Wait another couple of days and if the other eye still isn't open then you should take her to the vet
i ve had this happen to me with baby guinea pigs,its a mild eye infection,what you dois get a cotton ball and a styrofoam cup,put some warm (not hot water) in the cup,dip the cotton ball in the water and gently dab the hamsters eye with the water.this should be done a few times a day until the little guy opens its eyes.it usually works glad to help you
it has sleepy eye its like pink eye but it kills hamsters
oh no,the poor critter will be blind in one eye but lets hope not...please do not try this another time...
If i were u i would take it 2 the vet.
they r born blind so dont worry and dont let your cuzin do that agen and it should b fine
