This definately sounds like cataracts. They are caused be a couple of things all relating to DIET.If the gliders mom was obese while pregnant with her, it is very possible she was born blind. If not, overfeeding, particularly of high fat foods will also cause this. I also recently heard that there are some cataracts that are caused by giving them dairy products. Definately taker her to the vet for a definitive answer.
