Doug's advice is "right on the money." Though if the eyecap doesn't come off easily, you may just want to wait until the snake goes through its next shed cycle. With the right humidity, the old cap may come off with the shed skin.

Mouth rot it pretty easy to cure as long as it's not too far advanced. Another reason why the snake may be keeping its mouth open could be a respiratory infection. Like Doug said, the "cheesy" substance is what to look for when diagnosing mouth rot.

That snake looks like a hypo to me. Adult normals are hardly ever that "clean."
