Eye bubble :(

[Gbeats]

So i took Charla to the vet a couple days ago for her eye and the vet said retained shed or very mild thermal burn, increase mistings. But her eye has now gut a bump and doesn't look good! Any ideas what this is?? Any suggestions for some relief for my girl before I can get her back to the vet??

The first pic is her bad side and the other is the good side for comparison

• Your Chameleon - veiled, unsure exact age, maybe 4 months?, I've had her for 2 weeks
• Handling - once a day before I feed her
• Feeding - crickets dusted in calcium without d3, gave her coated with reptivite once. I give her about 10, she eats about 8 a day. The crickets are fed sweet potatoes and dandelion. I also give them flukers all in one cause the petstore sold me that with her.
• Watering - I don't see her drink. She hates the misting. I do it twice a day for about 2 minutes. I also have a dripper. I have been treating the water with the reptile safe stuff...hoping this is OK
• Fecal Description - black and white feces. See at least one in there a day but hard to notice with all the plants and all
• History - none

Cage Info:

• Cage Type - 16x16x36, chameleon kit screen cage
• Lighting - linear t5ho reptisun 10.0, br30 75watt flood in deep done. On 8a-8p
• Temperature & Humidity - waiting on temp gun from Amazon, don't have a humidity gauge
• Plants - Croton, umbrella plant, devil's ivy
• Placement - cage is in the spare room that is not high traffic. She is on a table that is about 3 feet off the ground
• Location - South Jersey

First u can try the warm shower method to get rid of those shed skin...if that still didnt come out completely...I will wet the q tip and gently to remove those shed skin in a circular direction without pushing into the center of the eye itself, hope this will help with her eye.

Hopefully! Google is making me nervous lol.

Never google symptoms lol!

No that’s definitely not a thermal burn, may want to consider finding a new vet.

As mentioned above your best course of action is to do a few long duration showers to flush any trash out.

Also have to get a real gutload, difficultly with shedding is a sign his diet is lacking certain nutrients, like vitamin A.

Good advice. You catch a simple cold but by the time you're done googling the symptoms you are convinced you're dying of acute liver disease, have two failing kidneys, multiple cancers and most likely advanced stages of AIDS.

Google is not your friend.

... and I’d definitely schedule another visit, don’t play around with eye issues, kinda important!

Upper respiratory infection, or vit-A deficiency. That covers 90% of cases.
