Already dabbed his eyes with a drop of mineral oil.

But I do understand your temptation. I have 5 snakes and 3 of them are currently in shed, means I can only handle 2 of them.
I know what you mean, there's a couple of spots on Casper where he's got stuck shed. he's got a little scale still right next to his vent but he has already proven it's not an issue. I'm only worried about the spot that's on the side of his head just a little behind his eye. but it shouldn't be a problem to remove after a soak once he's settled in.
