Hi, my dragon shows the followings for the past week:

1. eyes closed more frequent
2. sometimes shakes head
3. trying to scratch eyes with hands
4. during sleep, on and off lift his head with eyes closed

- His enclosure measures 135 x 55 x 45cm (L x W x H) glass tank with mesh top
- Reptisun T5 below mesh span through 55cm on the left at 12 inches above him
- Basking temperature around 99F

Here are the descriptions of the pic and video:

pic 1. eyes closed head lifted

video 1. shake head (I only managed to capture 1 shake at the beginning of the video, but he will often shake 2-3 times)

video 2. me touch and he is trying to scratch eyes, previously he won't react like this if we touch his eyes

video 3. other times when eyes not closed

I've tried to check but can't see any shedding sign. Is he actually okay or I should ge
t the vet check on him?

He looks normal -- video did not post -- what is the brand and bulb of the basking bulb your using?

I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer 🤣
