Looks by the one eye shot that it looks as if something is wrong but a clearer pic may help. How does it eat? and are there any sign of bowel movement in the tank?

My Sparky just starting having problems with one of her eyes. She was fine Friday and then she shed over the weekend, now her right eye seems closed alot, I am not sure what to do either. I am thinking something might have happened during the shed.

Most likely stuck shed...flush with eye drops.
Slightly warm Soaks will also help.
Take care. Hj

Continue soaks.

Impaction? Keep a look for waste, if eating
and drinking.
Take care. Hj

Thanks for the info, do you know what kind of eye drops I should use.
and the warm soaks, do you mean just the eye.
I tried to put him in warm water last night and he just freaked out... not sure how I can get near him for that. I dont want to hurt his eye..
