That sucks. I'm so glad I am down to one snake in a 20 snake collection eating live.

Make sure to keep it clean and I would take the diluted betadine suggestion.

I've personally seen some OLDER live eaters of many different species that look like Space Marines, battle scarred, missing an eye, dead/blind eyes, multiple healed scars, etc. Some snakes never get a mark, it's up to fate, I guess

A friend that I play cards with on the weekend just took his snake to the vet two weeks ago. The mouse got the snake under and over the top most eye scale and removed some of the "meat" good vet though should be able to save the eye. Be careful.
