He's shedding right now too. Please look at the link. The dark spot is where is pupil and iris are. You can't really see it in the photo but it's shiny...

Welcome to the forums. I'm sorry to hear your little man is having a problem with his eye. Will you please try to get us some better close up pictures of his eye?

Chloramphenicol 0.5% WV if you can get hold of this eyedrops for human use, u can apply it to your chameleon.

Best if you could bring your chameleon to the vet. If u can't, try this eye medication i mentioned above

yessir!

Yes Ma'am sounds better,if is a shed skin ,u can use a wet qtip soak with warm water and try gently rub it off ,if is not a shed skin then bring to a chameleon specialist vet since it could be something inside that eyeball n need to look at it since that shinning thing is right inside of the eye not outside .

Sorry ma'am! I got my cham from petco and they said within a month if something was wrong we could bring him back, they'd give him a vet visit, and then I could buy him back? Is that with it or no?

I like the way u judge and calling on human kind.....U calling @jannb "sir" n @alphakenc "ma'am"
And u said ...

Why do u need to buy him back???
I will suggest u called Petco "alien"
So It will be only fair after being called "ma'am" on my part!!

 

[alphakenc]

Now if I were u,I will tell Petco ,sure after the vet visit u guys can refund me including my gas mileage plus more before I consider to receive the cham back as a gift from the alien.

Speaking of the Petco they love giving people wrong advice ,to me they are like those people dancing in the EDM show wearing the big Mickey mouse hand or more like a karate school giving their best student a special color "Pink" belt....THEY MAKE ME LAUGH every times when I hear their stories
