I've had her for about 8 months, and this last time she shed she got skin in her eye. i asked my boyfriend and a local vet who own leos. and they said it would come out soon on its own.

well its been a month and all thats happpend is shes lost A LOT of weight, her color went dark and she doesnt come out of her moist/hide spot.

i thought maybe her brother might have been stressing her out so i moved him to a different cage.

Shes always been tiny compared to other leos but now with the sudden weight loss she just looks so sick.

She eats about 12- 15 crickets a week, which is normal for her.
I've tried feeding her wax worms, super worms, more crickets and even a pinkie trying to bring her weight up but no use.

any idea how to help her?

I'll post a pic. of her soon

Ya you can help her by taking her to the vet!! The stuck shed in her eye probably has not come out on its own and it could possibly cause an eye infection. The only things you can do on your own is to try and give your gecko a warm soak and try flushing with sterile saline, if you can see the skin you can try removing it. A trip to the vet is in order!!
