I have a dragon that has a droopy lower eyelid. Has anybody ever seen this? Any info would be great.

Melissa Kaplan's website says that "droopy eyes could be a sign of acute or chronic kidney failure. In any case, the beardie would need to be seen by a reptile vet as soon as this is noticed, whether on one side or both."

I've noticed droopy eyes with one of my beardies once when he was dehydrated. And I've also noticed a completely healthy beardies with slightly droopy eyes.

Sorry I don't have any more info on this subject for you.
