So last week I took my chameleon to the vet because one of his turrets was a bit swollen and he was holding the other eye closed. I was able to get in that day and got the optimologists to see him free of charge. They noticed a scratch on his eye and gave me antibiotic eye drops to try and prevent any infection that might set in during healing. I was to add one drop in each eye three times a day for 5 days. Well things seemed to be getting better until Christmas eve when I saw a small fleshy bulge pop up after a few seconds and then he will immediately close his eye. Now the eye has begun to sink in like he is dehydrated but the other has remained full and alert. It was suggested that he might need more vitamin a and the only thing the pet store had and the owner recommended(snake breeder) was turtle eye drops with vit A in it. I started using yesterday with 1 drop in the eye a day. please help I really am worried that it might be a nasolacrimal duct blockage. He also decided to start shedding yesterday
