She still has an eye problem

So my little one had an eye problem about a month back. She was squinting so I started to put drops in her eyes. She seemed to get better so I've been doing the drops and soaking her to get humidity. It seems to help the eye. I was trying to wait to see if it got better before I saw the vet. Last week I figured it was too long to keep doing this with her so I made and appointment. With the busy season, the soonest appointment I could get was for next Tuesday. She's tiny and she started off at 5/8oz. When I called the vet, she was 3/8oz. Tonight, I weighed her and she's only 1/8oz!! She doesn't look much skinnier, but now I'm afraid she's not eating. I've been feeding her Repta Aid for the past few days in hopes that it will get her weight up. She has mealworms in her bowl, but now I'm afraid she might be blind. Does anyone know how to tell if she's blind? Her eyes are solid black. I tried to get my finger really close to her eye, and she didn't move away. But then I tried it with my other geckos, and they didn't flinch either. Her eyes look okay, that's why I'm so confused why she's having problems. Any help while I wait for the vet would be great. Thank you.
