Personally I would use a tea bag (luke warm) . I allways bathe my racing pigeons eyes with this if they have been pecked whilst in the crate etc. Obviously if the eye has discharge ,looks damaged or does not improve in a day or two you need a vet. Just my oppinion based on years of expieriance with pigeons. The tea bag treatment has helped me many,many times . All the best .
