Tokay Eye's...

Today I went to my local expo and was looking through a bunch of wc imports they had at a table and found this girl with two different eyes... of course I just could not leave here there and brought her home, but please tell me your thoughts! I know many morphs have abnormal eyes, but so far she seems normal except for the one eye. does anyone have any experience with tokay eyes changing color over time? or have any simular to this? thanks!10171202_10153977238430144_4217709925003900420_n.jpg10171207_10153977238335144_2184560736086990134_n.jpg

I thought of blindness after I set her up in her quarantine cage and didn't want to stress her out any more. so testing her visual reception to light and reaction in each eye will have to wait. However in the photos, with light in her eyes they both pupils are restricted, so I'd assume she they are receptive to light.

It looks like the veins in the one eye might have burst. Think about it like after throwing up and your eyes are all bloodshot. If they are photoreceptive, that's a step in the right direction.

We've seen Tokay with different eyes before and they all seem to have been effected by Trauma and not genetic markers.

The closest to different eyes has been observed in "Snake eyed" Tokay where the white is different in each eye. In the example here, the white is in a different place within each eye. I've seen white on one side but not in the other. ;-)

Thanks for the input everyone, I inspected the eye closer today and it is indeed probably just trauma of some sort. she appears to be blind in that eye and the pupil is not reactive to light.
