HI, I had just been reading about this condition, just so I know htese things if it comes up. This article sure sounds like waht your seeing. If so it is sometimes called retained spectacles or eye caps. Better to take care of it asap .

Heres the article, hope it helps. Let us know how you make out, best wishes with your leopards.

If it is an eye cap problem you can use a wet q-tip to get them off. Just be gentle. This is something that is usually a bigger problem with snakes but can happen to lizards. It is really easy ot take care of if thats whats wrong.
