Eye Cap Retained

My Indigo has retained an eyecap in her last shed (a day ago). I've made her cage really humid and put damp paper towels in all of her hides. I tried, gently, to hold her hed in a damp paper towel so she could work it off...but it didn't (though she was very patient through it all). Any tips for removing the eye cap? Should I do it myself or let a vet? I've never had this problem before (and have no experience removing them).

thanks,

Josh
