I've had leopards before about 10 years ago, and I just recently rescued one from a petstore, its an albino. I have an underground heater under half the tank and a uv light on top because my rooom gets hot enough that I don't need any other type of heat light. But my question is...when I have the uv light on he squints all day long, like the light is hurting his eyes, but as soon as I turn it off, hes back to normal. I took him to the vet and they checked him from head to tail and nothing is wrong with him in anyway shape or form. Can leopard geckos be light sensitive, or is mine just weird??
