The rescue group wanted me to haul him to an eye specialist outside of Tampa. This sweetheart was not in any apparent pain but quite rickety, so I asked to take him locally first before subjecting him to two long car rides.

Dr. Valdez checked him over and said it's not going to cause a problem, he's not in pain, he's almost 16, just let him be. He gave me some eye drops to keep the area moist. A common-sense solution. Quincy lived to be 16, and the eye covering never budged or caused a problem.
