Kittens eyes not opening?

We found kittens and mommy in the barn. I have been feeding her over the winter so it was easy to get them all inside. Kittens are 3-maybe 4 weeks. All have their eyes open but one. Looks like one eye is starting to open. No redness or discharge. One of the litter mates has a little bit of runny eye, sometimes sneezes/coughs. Is this fiv/fip?

Give it time, not all babies open their eyes at the same time.

Take them to a vet and get them checked over

There is all the time one in the litter that is slower to grow up, give him some more time.

i think that's normal for kittens. if they have red eyes, i put a chamomile tea on a fabric and i applied on kitten's eyes. i hope everything will be good. i'm glad you saved them, nice job
