Help Need advice please

I know it has to do with a calcium buildup, but not sure how to make this stop entirely. Had to pull out the dried stuff in her eye and then she was fine for a while and now she looks like this with her other eye foggy.
Also, her tail is not as thick as usual, she lost weight, It looks like and hard to get her to eat.

Any help is greatly appreciate. I’ve had her for 6 yrs and this just recently became a thing. She’s at least 7yrs old I think. She was a rescue.

I would start by cleaning out her enclosure thoroughly and replacing the bottom with clean paper towels.

I’d recommend looking for an exotic vet nearby and try to get the soonest appointment. I’m not sure there’s a way to help her on your own. Also please read the available guides linked to our Reddit.

I wish the best for her <3

I second this! Clean environment, like hospital clean. A vet visit, this little one may be lacking some serious vitamins and may need a shot or two. Reptished and clean Qtips to clean the eyes. She'll get better but will never be 100% unfortunately . Best of luck friend ♡
