Your gecko may be getting ready to shed. The eyes turn cloudy and shed like the skin. Make sure there is enough moisture in Bandit's enclosure to allow for proper shedding. You can mist/spray the enclosure with water to help increase humidity. A vitamin deficiency could also cause this if it has lasted longer than a few weeks. You may want to start giving him some reptile supplements. There are many brands to choose from and a lot of reptiles need extra calcium supplemented in their diets. I hope this has helped. Thank you for using pet coach.
