gecko eye trouble

Sam Vimes · 2006-05-06 13:47:48

my girlfriend got a gecko last week (crested gecko i think its called). last night she accidentally tapped it on the head and now its left eye is bulging out of its socket. it doesn't seem to be bothering him and it still works. he's moving it and the pupil dilates and so on but its a bit worrying. is that a normal thing…

Bairbre(spelling?) O'Malley in Bray, John Bainbridge of argyle and bainbridge... located in terenure, and Manus Cannon in clondalkin, are used to dealing with exotics.
Not sure who to deal with if you're living beyond the pale.

I live in Laois & I trust Bairbre O'Malley or John Bainbridge with my exotics. Please consult a vet.
