Ok, I purchased a beardie yesterday, that's about a year old (give or take)... He's got an Eye Infection wich (the people that brought him in) said that whith medication it should clear up in a week (it had it before but it looks like it's coming back)... Is this anything to worry about? This guy is a great eater and is such a little pig! I'll have a few pictures of him, and some closeups of the eye (they are a little watery, like with a gel)... This is not my first bearded dragon btw.

You guys are always great at this forum, I know I'll get a fast reply!

Don't click that link.. i haven't used this account in a long time... that link is invalid!

Here are some pictures of my beardie with the eye infection... they aren't the best pics, but you can see the eye.

I'm not sure on the circumstances but you broke a rule. Never buy a sick animal. If it was from a store, you just adding fuel to a fire. Not to mention, why would you want to take on possible very high expenses?

Okay,, so now you have it & it needs help. First off, take it to a Vet. Find out what is causing the infection. If it is something that is reoccurring, then it could even be a bigger problem. It could be bacterial of some sort which could be contagious. Get it checked out & get him or her better.

Hopefully it is in much better hands now.
Good luck.
