Leopard Gecko With Eye Discharge?

[leopardgecko]

Hi, this is the first time I've used this forum, and recently I noticed that my leopard gecko (named "Pogo") had a bit of "orangey" discharge coming out of the corner of his eyes... I'm not sure what this could mean and if I need to take "Pogo" to his vet or not. Besides this, he is VERY healthy and has a large, fat tail. If anyone could respond to my question it would really help. Thanks! :yes:

That is usually a symptom of an eye infection. He may need to be seen by a vet for antibiotics.

In the meantime, make sure he has access to a humid hide, as shedding difficulties and dryness are often triggers for eye infections. Going over the basic requirements for health may help you adjust his environment.

Thanks for getting back to me! Thanks for letting me know, I'll adjust his tank and take him to his vet soon.
