This is Oreo!
He is my younger brothers pet. He noticed Oreo had swollen, red, watery eyes. They used sand in his tank and I informed them Oreo is too small for sand in the tank!… His behavior started to change, he would try to snap, he did not want to be bothered. He was in the corner of his tank sleeping seemed like for a week, no appetite! One day when he decided to wake up from his long nap this is how his eyes looked! Fast forward to a week later his eyes are filled with eye crust surrounding the whole eye (both)! The issue is we live in a state where exotic doctors are not really common, very far drives! I do suspect it is a really bad eye infection. I have not experienced this with my own 2 beardies! I am the person in my family who has more experience with bearded pets so I have been giving him warm baths hoping the crust would soften which I do see progress. He’s back to his normal attitude, no longer snapping, swelling is down, still doesn’t want to eat though ( I think because he can’t see what he’s eating )! My question is, I am afraid when I get the crust off the outside of the eye , the inside will still be red like this photo I attached. What drops are recommended? Please any info will help. Thank you for taking the time out to read about Oreo!
