I can't tell you exactly what is wrong with his eye, it could be more than one thing but it is an absolute emergency, you need to explain that to your vet and he should see you right away even if he does not have an apointment for you today, if he does not agree to see you , you need to take Milo to a different vet, either way he needs to be seen today.

    Poor Milo! I would take him into a vet now as any eye problem is considered any emergency. That’s because leaving it untreated can lead to vision loss. Please take him into a vet immediately to have his eye diagnosed and treated. Best of luck.
