All mine have totally stopped eating now. The adults as well as the juvies. The hatchlings have slowed down and I will take them out every three or four days to soak them and offer food. So I wouldn't worry about that. If he's eating good and you feel he's healthy and it's just his eye, I would keep putting the ointment on. He might have gotten some substrat in his eye, so let him soak a few times a day in warm water and then apply the ointment. Just what I would do. What kind of substrate are you using?
