Ok, I have 3 anoles. 2 are males-yes i know now that i shouldn't have, won't do it again-but one is now blind. It looks like both eyes have crustish stuff over it. I've been trying to clean it but i don't really want to try wiping-not sure if it will hurt the lizard-so i've just been dripping water on it. Probably pointless but i gotta try. There are no vets in my area that know about lizards and the pet store person doesn't really know what to do. The blind anole is adapting-still able to catch crickets when they hop over/by him, and can find his way slowly across the cage-but i would still like to do something about it. It makes him more tame-he doesn't know when my hand is near him and can't see to run off when i pick him up-but i don't like it being because he can't see. So any tips or advice would be very nice.
