(Urgent)- bearded dragon has glitter in eye

[BettaFishObsessed]

No idea how, but my bearded dragon somehow ended up with a tiny piece of glitter stuck in his eye. Its sort of more on the inner eyelid, but still obviously not good. He doesn’t seem bothered by it, but i dont want it to get stuck in his actual eye and damage it. I tried rinsing it out and it didnt do anything. any ideas?

Steady enough hands to try a pair of tweezers? Or maybe a really softhair brush like a brush for watercolors?

I dont trust myself with tweezers to not poke his eye out accidentally, good idea with the brush, i will try that

Does he like to go into water? My wifes office pet (veterinary clinic) is a bearded dragon. Mr Wigglesworth loves a good splashing in the sink. Maybe let him play under some running water?

He doesnt really like the water that much, but i will still try. I hope it works, i tried to rinse it out manually earlier but it didnt do anything. Btw mr wigglesworth is an adorable name haha

We call him M dub for short lol He’s a mostly happy boy with a shortened tail.

I would try a damp Q tip, and very gently try to wipe it away.

Hey i managed to get the glitter out of his eye! I was able to get it to the edge of his eyelid eventually with the things everyone suggested and then i was able to brush it off with my hand. Thanks guys!
