Help - Cats eye bleeding 8 days after the surgery, Is this normal?
Hello, my cat had a really bad eye ulcer and the vet recommended the eye be removed because it was in danger of rupturing soon, on November 1st. Just about everything has been pretty normal during her recovery. I took her in yesterday on November 8th for a check up and they said she's doing fine, they even said I could take the collar off but it seemed to early for that for me so I just kept it on.
This morning I noticed she was bleeding from the incision site (pic included). I called the vet right away and they told me I could bring her in to be looked at. They cleaned it and said she was fine and gave me antibiotics (to give to her) just to prevent infection but they didn't say anything about her being infected. Now about an hour later she seems to be bleeding again from there. Her appetite has seemed to gone down it seems. Also she hasn't pooped in like 3 days so I'm not sure if that has anything to do with this.
I just called the vet again and they told me I shouldn't be too cornered and that it's normal for the eye to drain, they did mention that it's a bit unusual it didn't happen sooner as opposed to now but they said it was normal. I'm kind of thinking of calling another vet just to get a 2nd opinion but would greatly appreciate any and all advice from you all here who I'm sure have experience with this. Feel free to send me a private message if you want about this too. Thanks in advance for any help.
Summary - Cat got eye removal surgery on Nov 1st, just started bleeding a bit on Nov 9th (hasn't done this before now) (pics included) Any advice?
Edit; she has been wearing the e-collar this whole time and I haven't seen her touch the eye at all.

Squid update! Medication today.
Squid went to the vet today for a suspected upper respiratory infection. Confirmed he does indeed have one. He had a bit of blood in his sneezing discharge. Eye drops and antibiotics now on board. (He’s eating and drinking fine). Poor guy has had a rough start to life. But I don’t think he realizes that! Here’s a new squid pic!

Got this one eyed beauty today. Meet squid.
Been at the humane society a few weeks. He’s had no application interest. All his siblings were adopted. He was found as a stray. He has to have his eye removed. I’m not really sure if it was from a infection or what. He does have a slight eye watering and a slight sneeze. He’s being kept from my other cat. He’s already fitting in. Sleeping with my dogs. I’m going to try to get him to the vet Monday to see about his sneeze and eye drainage (it’s very minimal, but I’m still concerned).

We took in a pirate
This is Fury (aka Nick Fury)
A good friend of mine’s daughter saved him from the outside. I was the only one that had cats he knew and asked if I would take him in.
So naturally we took him in, he is the sweetest cat I have ever met.
I have 2 right now he’s our third and he’s so sweet.
My only concern if someone can help is the vet she took him too said that his eye doesn’t need to be sewn shut. Sounded odd seeing all the pirates with their eyes sewn shut.
We have a vet visit on Sunday to check it out with my vet so we’ll see what they say.
Anyway fury, Drink up me hearties, yo ho Yo ho, yo ho, a pirate's life for me

Thor must have Meöwlnir on him because I am unable to lift him off me. (I also have not tried since he is so cute)

Nick Furry wants to emphasize his importance by placing himself on a pedestal.

Katla has so many actual toys, but her favorite thing in the world is still playing fetch with garbage toys from the garbage (twist ties).
