    Newly hatched, Eye issue?

    I know I have seen threads about something similar before, and I have tried searching but for the life of me I cannot find them. Apparently "eye" isn't long enough for a search term. This baby just hatched, and one of its eyes is all cloudy and white, and almost looks full of fluid. Has anyone had any experience with something like this? What, if anything, can be done?

    Looks like a "Dead" eye buy better pics would be of great help.

    Does it look like something like this?

    When it first hatch



    When it first shed



    Last year I hatched this guy, and it actually seemed like lairs of skins that actually came off but would come right back (that's the best way I can describe it), not much help here since I still have no real idea on what the issue was (this guy was part of a loan and I only had him for 3 or 4 weeks)

    From what I observed during that time is that the animal was healthy (aside from that issue) and eating, the eye issue did not seem to bother him.

    I had seen a BEL posted on FB recently. The seller was candid and did post there was an eye issue and one had been full of fluid. They also said they had removed the fluid twice I guess with a syringe? Along with that they had posted pics of after sheds and it appeared to be getting better. If I find it or remember who it was I'll let you know. Think it was a super mojo.

    Re: Newly hatched, Eye issue?

    I have a sterling who was born with something similar to that. Shes now almost 3 years old and doing fine. The eye is still messed up though.
