Not really sure what is wrong with my albino. I noticed this with her eye a few days ago and said i was going to wait a few days to see if it went away and if it didnt i would post up on here to see if anyone has any ideas of what might be wrong. I know she has been breeding alot lately with our big SHCTTB male and im not sure if this might have caused it or what, but its the only thing i can think of. She can still see out of it as far as i can tell it just looks like she has a decent sized lump behind her left eye that is forcing her eye to close half way. She has been acting kind of strange as well, as im typing this she is rubbing her head on her rock water dish. She will also open her mouth like she is yawning a whole bunch and then lick her lips for no aparent reason. She will kinda wonder through her cage with her eyes closed and lick things and just touch them with her nose. Just general strange behavior, im really worried about her. This has all started since her eye has started to look like this.Any ideas on how i can help her through this or anything that i can do? Should i take her to a vet? I dont think there are any good reptile vets in my area. Thanks in advance guys all help is appriciated...

Here are a few pics...

I'd say she's got a cyst/infection forming there. It could have happened from a "love bite". This is one of those things that a vet should handle!

Should i wait to see if it gets worse? Or should i just take her to a vet now?

I think you should take her now, if you wait until it gets worst it can be even more expensive and the problem can get even more serious.
