Information about cats third eyelids

My cat has had about 1/3 of her 'third eyelid' showing for a few weeks now. I took her to the vets and they de-wormed her saying it could be worms. The blood work was normal and she obviously didn't have worms as her third eyelids are still stuck. Any experience with this? It's pretty creepy to look at! (The white part covers anywhere from 1/3-2/3 of her eye depending on the day)

My first thought is that your cat has an infection in its eyes. Possibly they are irritated by something environmental in your home, or she has scratched her eye. If it is both of her eyes that are affected, I would would go more of the "infection" route. Your vet should prescribe some antibiotic drops for your cat's eyes. The worming idea is interesting. Never heard that one.
