im 99% sure my chameleon went blind, i was out for a few days and let my mom was take care of her and i come back and her eyes are cloudy and she does not track her food or my hands. she’s been eating when i put the food to her mouth and ill try to sneak some water in there so i don’t think she’s going on a hunger strike. ive called 3 vet areas and they all do not take chameleons.. is there anywhere around that does?

If she'll drink and eat, keep doing it. Hydration is most important. Any vet will need to know about your husbandry....food and supplementation, lighting (UV, etc.), hydration, everything. Why not describe it to us too? We might be able to help even if you can't get to a vet. If you can find a vet willing to see her, they could also consult with a more experienced vet from the list Beman provided.

i usually supplement her dubia roaches everyday with the calcium without d3 and with d3 every two weeks, i try to take her outside everyday for some natural sunlight

• 60 Watt Heat Bulb
• 20″ Fluorescent Fixture
• Reptisun 5.0 18′ Fluorescent Bulb. i tend to mist her every few hours on her leaves and have a little water droplet system on the top.
• Cage 18″ x 18″ x 36″ im not too sure on her age but ive had her for about 5 months and this is the first issue ive had..
• the shop didn’t know too much about her age either

The wattage of the basking bulb doesn't really tell us much. What temperature does it actually provide at the basking spot? How do you keep track of that temperature?
What's the temperature in the non-basking areas of the cage and how do you measure it? What's the temperature change from day to night? How many hours of UV does she get every day?
What's the cage humidity before or after misting?
So, your Reptisun bulb is 5 months old. Maybe time for a new one. I haven't used one in a while, but they don't emit the same intensity of UV forever.
