Dear Hanna,
Thank you for reaching out and for looking after this cat and her kittens
If possible, please do take photos and videos of the mother cat and all the kittens. This is very important both for assessing their condition and for any future rehoming efforts. You can also post their information in local Facebook groups; there is a list of relevant groups at the link

Regarding the kittens’ eyes, if they appear infected or abnormal, you can start by using Tobrex eye drops. It would also be a good idea to have them examined by a veterinary ophthalmologist. If you are near Limassol, I would recommend Despo in the Agios Athanasios area. If you are closer to Larnaca, Dr. Glykeria at V3ts is another excellent option
Because the mother cat is very protective and fearful, it may be best not to force contact for now. Continue feeding her and gaining her trust. Once the kittens are old enough to eat kitten food independently and no longer rely primarily on their mother’s milk, it would be beneficial to try to trap the mother cat so she can be sterilized and receive any necessary medical treatment
At the same time, please take as many good photos as possible of the kittens. When they are old enough, you can try to find homes for them. Unfortunately, there are no guarantees, but it is definitely worth trying
Thank you again for caring about them and keeping an eye on their wellbeing
