Geckos Eyes

[Ohhmysyss]

I have a leopard gecko who has a cloudy type thing in her eye. She rarely opens it and cant really eat now. She has a humidity box and were putting drops in her eyes, but they dont seem to be working. Do you guys no anything I could possibly do. Anything will help. Thanks.

Do you have any pictures? She might need to go to a vet. Sometimes when animals damage their eyes, the tissue looks kind of cloudy.

Yes, she most likely has an eye infection. I wouldn't use over-the-counter eyedrops for any animal. Best to take her to a vet promptly. If it's just an infection, she'll be given antibiotics. Not too expensive, if it's caught early.

Check your husbandry as well--make sure the temperatures are correct, and that her insects are gut-loaded well, and dusted with calcium. Use a multivitamin powder once a week, instead--it should have some preformed vitamin A.
