Default Eye infection

What do you make of this? the snake in question ( one of the new Rocks) is blueing up but only one eye is like this, looks a lot more milky than i`ve seen before .

There is no swelling just looks like someone has put a tiny white marble in there in place of the eye .



Cheers

I would say vets ASAP too, what ever it is looks like it would need some specialist advice.

Agree vets for this one. Looks like it could be one of many things (blind eye, infection, trauma). Let us all know how you get on at the vets
