there's a big dent in that eye. that suggests dehydration or low humidity... when my BP had a stuck eye cap, the only thing i tried was soaking, then letting him rub the towel... it didn't help me either. i didn't dare try to remove it myself in such a sensitive area, so i took him straight to the vet..
the vet said it took 3 soaks, then finally she manually removed it... and in the pic, the eye definitely still looks cloudy, so i'm fairly confident that it's an eye cap.. those things loooove our little BP eyes
best of luck to you i hope he's okay

yes, his humidity was down for a minute. its back up and at 74% right now. he seems fine other than the way his eye is. i chose not to feed him last night because if his eye is damaged, i don't want it to get infected. we'll see what the vet says on thursday and I'll keep everybody posted.

he's going to the vet today. His eye isn't dented anymore and he's been soaked a couple times since. I'll let you know how it goes tonight!
