runny eyes are a symptom of a cold or eye infection...colds are also accompanied by labored breathing, wheezing, and leo leo staying on the warm side almost all the time. colds can be fixed by upping the temps, substrate AND air temps (get a heat lamp as well as a UTH) and by dusting the leo's meals with vitamin/mineral powder every time you feed. eye infections often need a vet to prescribe medicine.
