    I have a young bp who's eyewear similar and have always had the opaque upper half I chalked it up to the fact that he has yellow stripe similar to you that runs half way up the eye. He sheds perfect every time, nothing stuck anywhere. That's just my take, since, in his case I have no other explanation.

    Does it ever seem like he has a problem seeing or anything?

    Just keep the humidity at normal ranges 50-60% and they should come off next shed or on there own. I have one that i got that the eye caps just fell off and i have had her for 2 months. And they were on there for a month before i got her so just be patient it wont kill your snake 😊

    I cover my tupperware container with lace (lots of holes to breathe through). Please don't mess with your snake's eyes. He doesn't know you well and could very well bite you. Just soak him, and give him a branch (the ones they sell at the pet store safe for snakes) to brush up against.

    Do not soak him.

    Do not touch his eyes with a q-tip.

    Do not touch his eyes with tape.

    Wait for his next shed and in the meantime, provide him with a humid hide.

    If they are still retained after the next shed, see a qualified reptile vet.

    Best freaking advice of all! Skip knows what he is doing and talking about.
