    Sounds like some kind of infection. Look here for info about eye conditions: http://www.guinealynx.info/eyes.html

    It sounds like he needs to see a vet ASAP, hope all goes well.

    ETA: hope the appointment went well and you were able to find the cause, poor thing was lucky enough to at least end up on a doorstep of someone like yourself. If it is an infection and get antibiotics to clear it up this may help in case you run into issues: http://www.guinealynx.info/antibiotic_advice.html

    Looks like I'm answering as you're at the vets.

    I hope the piggy is ok and you did the right thing making an appointment.

    If you decide to keep it, be sure that you read up and learn everything possible. If not, be responsible, unlike his/her previous owner, and take him/her to a shelter <3
