A kitten found me. She must have known she needed help because she has not been handled by any humans. She just meowed her little heart out until I found her, scared and shivering, next to a chain link fence in my neighborhood. She looks completely blind in her left eye, it has the milky white look. It is also red like it's infected and she still has discharge coming from it as well. I've tried to get a better look, but she's still too skittish.

There are ointments for eyes available from Valley Vet Supply, on the Web. They are for bacterial infections. these are common in kittens. They are not too expensive. You should consider a trip to the Vet. You seem to really care for this kitten, but probably have not budgeted for the expense.
Vets usually have a pay over time program available. Let them know you need to know in advance what the cost will be and see if you cant make just one trip. Kittens need a distemper vaccination especially. just one or two last a lifetime. You will also need to find a way to have her spayed in a few months.
Many local rescue groups will do this for a minimal amount. Also be sure and check with you local humane society to see if they have low cost Vet care available. Anyway, check out Valley Vet Supply, they will have the wormer you will need also. Continue to keep you kittens eye cleaned up. You may be surprised to see the ointment clear it completely. I have seen cats eyes clear that were dead white with infection. Good luck to you.
I have also seen the ointment from the vet clear up a dead looking eye thanks for the vet supply link i have the empty tube the vet gave the last kittens i had so i can try to find a refill for this new batch.
As you can not catch her you can't help her. Call your local verterinarian and explain the problem. They are not "heartless" people. Good luck.
