So I have a problem. My gecko (crocodile, if it makes any difference) had a bad shed. Winter hit all of a sudden and her humidity dropped enough for her to have her first bad shed with me. Unfortunately, some shed got stuck on her eye. (I have since fixed the humidity issue.) So I went to the only vet in our area with any reptile experience (though he's not an expert, but he did his research and talked to other vets to make sure he was doing everything right). He wasn't able to remove it, so he gave me some artificial tears and had me come back five days later. Still couldn't get it off. He suggested I go somewhere else about two hours away, but it's really stuck on there, and I'm afraid they won't be able to get it off either. What happens if we can't get it off? I know that's not something that usually comes off with a proper shed, so then what? Any help or words of wisdom from anyone who's gone through this kind of issue would be appreciated.
