Question about my Boa's eye...

LCGEckos May 09, 2004 10:25 AM

I was looking at my red tail today and noticed on the left side of his head, that eye looks like it's indented, while the one on the right doesn't. It's clear, and he moves it. Doesn't act like he has vision impairment or anything. I was wondering since he shed about 9 days ago if it's possibly just an eyecap stuck on him. I have never had that happen so I don't really know the symptoms. I assumed they would be cloudy and fairly noticable. Any ideas about this are greatly appreciated.

Are you able to post a pic of the eye in???? Andy

No, my camera isn't working. I can tell you that it looks exactly like the normal eye except there is an area in the center that is indented. Kind of like when you push in a plastic egg and get the squared off round egg with a dent in the middle...

It's clear...

Sounds like an eye cap. Andy
