Dial A Vet · Accepted Answer

A swollen or partially closed eye in a chameleon is a concerning symptom. It can indicate a number of issues, including an eye infection, injury, vitamin A deficiency, or even a systemic illness. Reptiles, including chameleons, require very specific environmental conditions (temperature, humidity, UVB lighting) to thrive, and deviations can quickly lead to health problems. Ensure their enclosure conditions are optimal. Do not attempt to treat it at home. It's crucial to seek veterinary care from a veterinarian experienced in exotic pets promptly. Speak to Dial A Vet via a video consult should you need further guidance. They can help guide you to a specialist.
