Eye issue :(

[Makaveli]

Okay so my poor veiled chameleon has been with this eye problem for about a week, it's droopy & bulging out sometimes, I've tried warm showers & cleaning it off with a q tip, no luck , every time it looks like it softens up & she tries to push whatever is inside out or rub it out nothing comes out, I just wanna r/o infection what do you guys think?

I think it looks like it is infected and he needs to be seen by a vet!

Take her to a vet asap. Mine had the same thing and I let it go too long and now she is blind in one eye. I hope she improves!

Thank you guys so much, took her to the vet today, thank god it wasn't an infection guess she got something stuck in her eye so the vet flushed it out & gave me erythromycin ointment to use for two weeks, she can open her eye now

Just noticed my Chams eye is something like this one. Took video of it showing his eye more active. I'm guessing I'm might need to flush his eye. Not sure how or what to use after. Any tips, pls. Note, his eye is not staying that way just caught it as so.
