My bearded dragon has eggs so we have been putting her in her lay box lately. She got some sand in her eye today and didn't want to open it so we were trying to flush it out with water. I told my husband that he could try using saline solution and I guess he misunderstood because he used contact solution! I feel so horrible because now I'm reading everywhere that you're not supposed to do that. Anyways, as soon as I realized he had used contact solution a few mins later, I tried putting more water on her eyes. I went to two different stores (it's night time so not a lot is open) but none of them sold sterile saline. I ordered some tonight but it won't come for another two days so tomorrow I will go to more stores to try to find some.
She has opened her eyes since, but Idk if I should be concerned about the contact solution. She still seems to prefer opening her other eye. When she does open the eye that got the contact solution, it looks normal. I'm hoping she's just not opening it because we've been pouring water on it so much tonight. Does anyone have any advice? I'm so sorry for what we did!
Thank you!
