1 y/o Husky, white w/ blue eyes. Cat scratched dog in the eye on Dec 24. That night and the morning of the 25th dog kept eye closed. evening of 25th eye was fully opened again, vision appears normal. Original color of eye was light blue. Now eye is a yellowish/golden color. Could the scratch have somehow changed the pigmentation of the eye or will this clear up in time ?

If the colour of the eye has changed it's possible that Luna has uveitis secondary to the scratch injury. This can be quite serious and indicate infection and pain. Although it might clear up on its own she should be treated by a vet, as there is a risk of permanent damage if left untreated.
