Her eyes look kind of weird to me. I mean I don't know. Somehow they look kind of droopy or something but I don't know if this is normal or not. There's a picture in my sig and then there's this extreme close up.

Anyone? Ideas?

I dunno if this applies to reptiles and amphibians too, but for guinea pigs and other rodents, it's hereditary and is only a little pocket of build up that is harmless and only harms if it becomes unnaturally large and the eyeball gets damaged, but that's not normal.

Is it only one eye or are both eyes the same? And has the dragon's eyes always looked like that did this occur suddenly? I suspect it may just be Ectropion, a genetic condition that should be easy to manage. It does lead to a higher than average risk for eye infection though, so if you are using a loose substrate like sand, you might want to switch to a solid substrate like paper towels or shelf liner.

Both of them kind of gradually got like that but one seems worse than the other.
