wierd eye

Question
Please help!!! My Green Anole has not been opening his eye much lately and my fence lizard just had the same thing happen to him. We let the fence lizard go, thinking he may be contagous. We have bathed the green anole in warm water and Epsom salts a couple times, but his eyelid still looks weird. PLEASE HELP!!!

Answer
Hey Connor, can you describe "weird" for me? So is it like secreting a liquid holding it shut? I need more information because eye problems are a wide subject. It could be a number of things. Like maybe the two lizards got into a fight? Maybe the substrate you are using got in his eye and got infected? Whatever it is you need to take him to the vet and they can tell you exactly what happened and tell you exactly how to make it better. Trust me you don't want to risk not taking him and then have something bad happen. Good Luck and I hope you anole will get better soon. Thanks for caring about your pet!
