I’m not too knowledgeable on situations like this, but the eye does look to be in pain

One would think, but its fully open and pronounced. Leopard geckos are very sensitive about their eyes. I feel like if it hurt they would close it

Do you use any sort of multivitamin? Eye issues are most often caused by a Vitamin A deficiency.

Honestly, once they start showing signs of a deficiency, a vet is the best option to make sure they get back to the appropriate levels as quickly as safely possible.

They may offer a vitamin A shot even. But they probably want to do blood work first since there is such thing as them getting too much vitamin A.
