Why doesn't the crescent gecko have eyelids?
the crested gecko has a clear membrane called a brine. This brine allows them to have their eyes fixated at all times. Living in a tropical envoirenment, the crested gecko is exposed to rain daily and the rain is able to slide off the brine. This also allows the gecko to have a view of it's surroundings at all times.
