Eye problem

[TiffanyMariexo]

Had this little guy for about a week. His eye seems to stay shut a lot. He's plenty hydrated and drinking lots of water.. I've been doing extra misting and keeping and eye on it and it seems a little indented on one spot. He was in a cage with other Chams crawling all over the place. If I had to guess I'd say he had a claw to the eye. Any ideas or personal experiences ?? I'm hoping it eases up on the poor guy

Anyone ? He can open it he just doesn't all the time

Id venture to say it is some sort of debri (skin, dirt, etc) or start of infection.

Give him some super long showers. If nothing changes within a few days...Vet time.

Typically veileds dont have the Vit A issues like panthers.

Sounds good maybe some hydration shower time is on order , thanks !

I've been given him direct warm mist to his eyes and he's bubbling it out and cleaning it. Step by step my poor boy

What uv lighting setup does he have? Coil or tube?
