Im no eye-expert, but I believe that eye issues can be anything from
something in it, irritating it
to a vitamin deficiency (A or B)
to parasites
to damage from CFLs

If his eye is close a lot, I would take him to the vet

I have been having the same problems with my panthers. I took her to a vet and it was diagnosed as a vitamin A deficiency. They told me to gut load my crickets with high vitamin A foods like carrots. I have been doing it for several months now, and it seems to be getting better slowly.

panther eye problems..

when in doubt take them to the vet. some times they bump or rub something the wrong way in the enclosure and that will cause a problem with the eye.
just make sure when you take them to a vet,that they know what they are doing.mine was super healthy and was having a problem with one of his limbs being swollen and the vet told me to give him this med. well after the first dose he was starting to go before my eyes. well it eventually killed him. try the warm shower thing on him. don
