The skin gets an oily coat underneath, which is meant to protect the new skin and help the old one to detach easily. The eyes of the snake can look really white, or milky when this stage of the shed is reached.
Usually, when my snakes have milky eyes, I know they will shed in about a week. When they are coming up to a shed, they stop defecating and will become quite unsociable, hiding away in their shelters. It's best not to touch a snake or other reptile at this time, as the new skin could be damaged by handling.
Yes snakes have two eyes, but they do not have eyelids. A spectacle, a transparent scale that is actually part of the skin, protects each eye. When a snake undergoes ecdysis (shedding if the skin), it sloughs this spectacle off along with its skin. Spectacles turn a light, semiopaque blue as the snake prepares to shed. Herpetologists call this condition "in the blue." This is normal, but snakekeepers who have never seen it happen before may mistake it for a problem. Immediately before the actual shed, spectacles again become clear. This means that the shed is imminent.
Actually, snakes don't have eyelids. They have scales that cover their eyes. When they molt, the scales on their eyes are replaced.
No, not all cats are born with blue eyes. Kittens are usually born with blue eyes, but their eye color can change as they grow older due to genetics. Most cats' eyes will change to their permanent color by the time they are 3 months old.
It is possible, but extremely rare. If a snake has two heads, that means four eyes instead of two. I don't know if a snake can have more than two eyes on one head, but yes, having more than two eyes is possible for a snake.
This depends on the snake. In general, most snakes eyes dont change colour, they are usually brown to black and should look shiney. If your snakes eyes have suddenly turned grey and this is the first time you have noticed, it could be shine of stress or ill health in the snake. Cornsnake Kid.

I dont think so. Mine are still grey-blue =) (and listen to me cause I kno what I talking about!)
Jase's eyes likely turn red due to irritation, fatigue, lack of sleep, or dryness. These factors can cause blood vessels in the eyes to dilate, resulting in the appearance of redness. Consulting with an eye care professional can help determine the exact cause and appropriate treatment.
Contact Lens.
no. the eyes would just be irritated, and won't turn blue, unless the hairspray has indelible ink....=)
I found out. She has blue-grey eyes that sometimes turn green.
Snakes cannot close their eyes - they have no eyelids.
