mineral oil is used if scales do not completely come off. he has two patchy spots on top of his head that don't come off, usually, but i have recently noticed a third. if there was an extra scale on his eye (there isn't, just wanting to know) or if i accidentally got some mineral oil in his eye would it be bad or hurt him is all.

and for eye caps if it's just the eye cap and you're sure it's the whole eye cap i know that some people use scotch tape VERY CAREFULLY after giving them moisture in the ways you described. i've had to give a snake a head bath and peel the entire shed skin off his head. i don't know how he managed to get every other part of his body except for his head... anyways he ate fine and is behaving normally once more.
