Sorry this has taken so long - my original post was almost a week ago - and many thanks to those who told me about the genetic defect and the red eyes. We will be having the vet out this week. Unfortunately, everything was delayed - I ate or drank the wrong thing somewhere and came down with Hepatitis A and a kidney infection on top of it - so I'm still not functioning on all hooves.
We believe he has diminished vision. Compared to our other foals born within two days of him, his eyes are not bugged out - but it is very hard to see any pupil in one eye. Hopefully he is not blind and we can geld him and give him away as a pet. If he is blind and/or has other problems, we will have to discuss our options for him again.
