I think it might be better to just leave them on until the next shed than to keep messing with it and risking injury. But that's just me, maybe someone else thinks it would be worth a try to remove them.

If it is just one sheds worth I would leave it till the next shed and be careful that it has a good shed next time. The problem comes in when multiple eye-caps build-up and also when you damage the eyes trying to remove them yourself.
