Wiggans KT, Sanchez-Migallon Guzman D, Reilly CM, et al. Diagnosis, treatment, and outcome of and risk factors for ophthalmic disease in leopard geckos (Eublepharis macularius) at a veterinary teaching hospital: 52 cases (1985 ‒2013). J Am Vet Med Assoc 252(3): 316‒,323, 2018.

Leopard geckos are unique among geckos by having movable eyelids and no spectacles. The purpose of this retrospective study was to describe the diagnosis, treatment, outcome of and risk factors for ophthalmic disease in leopard geckos evaluated at a veterinary teaching hospital. During the period of January 1985 through October 2013, a total of 144 leopard geckos were evaluated at the William R. Pritchard Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital of the University of California-Davis. Of these, 112 animals had sufficient medical record documentation to be included in the study.
