Can he see the mouse on the side in question when your feeding? Does he strike accurately? Have you taken him to an eye doctor :P hahaha

Science is an amazing thing...
Your SD's eyes look fine. its like the difference between two people's eyes, everyone is unique.

MR.MILLERTIME!!! LOL...It's Been A While Since We Spoke I've been away for a bit but thanks for the help and yea it is hard to tell bein they can use other techniques and senses to navigate and hunt! I just picked this little guy up so I'm gonna offer him a hopper this weekend and put it on each side and see if he becomes a little stalker...Thank you to everyone that helped out and replied! And how does he look to you Kyle?

He looks really good. I don't think its gonna affect his vision at all. I'm sure even if he is blind he'll be able to hunt just fine. A friend of mine has one snake that has one seriously deformed eye and can still strike and eat on that side.
Welcome back, I don't post much lately, I just pop in from time to time.
