Hello All,
Just last night I noticed that my 8 month old albino boa male's right eyeball has a huge "dent" in it; it appears to have collasped inwards. He has been doing just fine, acting normally, eating, his temp gradients are just fine, his last shed was normal, he is on cypress mulch and appears to be otherwise normal. The eye is not swollen at all, just appears to have fallen in..I have looked everywhere for snake eye problems and have only gotten results for retained eye caps. I am planning on taking him to my vet on Monday, but I wanted to get everyone's opinion on what it could possibly be and what I could do in the meantime.
Thank you all in advance for any help you can provide,
Nicole Corder.
