Some snakes will rub there noses against screen lids..or corners of the lids..in hopes to escape. This is ussually what causes the sores, or blistering. And, could also be a shedding factor.:-)

And...I just noticed this is the pogona catagory. My male dragons will often do this...not totally sure why, but if there isnt any sores or blisters I couldnt be too concerned.
