    None of us are vets and we can't see the snake in real time. It would be really irresponsible for any of us to make a diagnosis or to suggest any course of action other than to get the snake to a qualified vet and have it checked out thoroughly

    Glad you have an appointment and hope to read about the follow-up!

    recessed is more likely to mean that the flesh around the eye is swollen and puffy, and kinda swallowing the eye a little as a result. If you go to the vet, please tell us what they say as I've been noticing something similar on one of my snakes, but it's not getting worse or affecting her at all (in fact i was sure i was just hallucinating before now, but maybe i'm not).

    possible respitory infection problem from having her outdoors, taking her to the vet. Somebody correct me if Im wrong. If it continues or gets worsed call the vet and make another appointment asap
