Albino Leo's eyes?

TebbyGecko Jul 22, 2003 04:34 AM

Hey,

I read that Albino Leopard Geckos have sensitive eyes to light, does that mean they will do my Albino does? She usually squints at everything and only has her eyes opened wide when hunting. Other then that she keeps her eyes closed or squinted. Thanks.

P.S.- I use red nocturnal lighting for her and it still happens when all the other lights are off. She does widen her eyes, but not half as much as Ron. Thanks.

They do are sensitive to light, but when not too bright light is one, they shouldn't have their eyes closed all the time. Still when they are exposed to a lot of bright light they do close their and will stay like that for a little bit of time until they realize that is dark again...np Still, they are sensitive to light, but not extremely.
