I have 5 kittens and all of their eyes opened except one only has one eye open. Could something be wrong?

Just wait a few more days and see if it opens up.
Remember that you aren't supposed to touch the kitties till both eyes are open to help their development.

It is possible that something is wrong with the kittens eye but, my kitten was the same way and it got better after about 17 days. It could just be irritation around or in the eye that is causing it to do that! if the Irritation doesn't get better or even gets worse than you should tahke it to the vet! Some kittens just have a condition in their eyes and never get better well, I also have advice on a name if you haven't named it yet, you could always name it Popeye lol.
Well, I hope this helped and your kitten gets better soon!

Give it time and if there is something wrong don't worry too much I knew a cat with only one eye and he was perfectly fine. He was even a barn cat and hunted mice so totally unaffected by his handi-cap. Just be sure to talk to your vet about it. ;} And remeber it's still a baby give him a break lol :}

The little baby is still growing, so maybe she isn't ready to open the other eye up. I would give her another week and if there is still no change, call your vet and ask. If there is any redness or swelling, you should call a vet now.

it is common. Kittens will start to open their eyes from 5-10 days, and it ought to take some days for them to absolutely open. commencing them progressively incredibly of abruptly helps them to conform with the recent international around them. no might desire to fret, in simple terms provide them some time. = )

Call the vet. They would know what is normal and what isn't.
