Awww bless them. I kind of hope they survive but wondering if they did would it be fair if they do not have quality of life

They have 3 eyes.
Also I very much doubt that they will survive and it's probably for the best

How sad that is.

If their internal organs are good they may be ok?

Even if there organs are good. Sadly, it's most likely the vet will advise having it put to sleep. That's no real way of life is it?
