Another update:
She's waaaaaay more active now that she can see, I swear she hasn't slept yet and just keeps exploring her enclosure.
She had her first set of eye drops today, plus eye lube. It stresses her out a lot. She's still a very good girl, never wants to hurt anybody, so she'll A) wrap around my arm and kinda seem to pull it away or B) pull away so hard I swear I'm hurting her.
If anyone had advice on how to make it less stressful, if even possible that'd be great! I don't want to hurt her trying to make her better

Same here (rescues), and I agree with you both. Doing good by helping an animal in need just always feels better than simply buying one...you know for sure you made
a bigger impact in their lives. Pets bring warm feelings to our chilly worlds...rescues can bring the warmest, in my opinion.
I think she'll calm down some, there's just so much she has to get used to now.

Yet another update!
She had her second set of eye drops (needs them every 8 hours) and this time I didn’t have to hold her. She had her head up to where I could see her eyes, stayed still while I dropped them in, and even moved her head to the other side so I could get the other eye. Same with the lube, though once it hit her eye she started rubbing her face against her fake grass, it doesn’t come off though which is good
i think after the first time she probably was like this feels good, and so doesn’t mind it now

Another update:
Her left eye started getting bad again, so the vet suggested putting eye lube on more than twice a day (now) to keep it moist since it looked a bit dry.
She can see out of her right side, which has made her trust me immensely more (I suppose since she can see my actions / what I'm doing)
At the end of next week she will be done with her medication / treatment. So I suppose I'll see then if her left eye is savable still
To add: this whole thing so far has been 530$... Did not plan for that in my budget
I can't wait to look back on this and call her my most expensive snake haha
