Blue & Gold Macaw eye swollen

It is probably a sinus infection, but I cannot say without an exam of your bird. It is common to find blood values normal with sinus infections. You should continue treatment as prescribed by your Dr, but if your bird is not getting any better, then seek a second opinion from a specialist.
