you have a gecko? cool. sorry he/she may have a problem. my sister had a bearded dragon named fred until it laid eggs. then she was fredwinna.
That was my leopard gecko's name, because I wanted to wait until it was old enough to tell if it was male or female to name it and my mom got tired of calling it "the gecko," so started calling it Fred, and that stuck. There were no eggs, but I think my Fred was a girl, too. My crested gecko is definitely a boy. His name is Anders, after the character in Dragon Age. Dr. Google says his eye issue is probably either an injury or a cataract. My mom knows some people who probably know of good reptile vets, so she's going to ask around for somewhere to take him to get it checked out, although there's probably not much, if anything, that can be done about it. But at least he's still got one good eye, so he isn't completely blind.
