I have a vet appt. For Thursday, it is the soonest they had, I do not have any loose substrate, 10.0 uvb tube, brand new, 75watt heat lamp, 103 on warm side 80 on cool side, still eating....Altho im still struggling to get him to eat greens. He will be 1 in July. I'm just worried!! I dont know if there is something I should do different?! He will open it after I use a damp qtip on it, there does not seem to be any inflammation or anything?

Try some sterile saline solution, you can get it by the contact lens/eye drops at the drug store. That will help flush his eye out until you get him to the vet.
