How does one tell if a leopard gecko is blind? I’m beginning to think Mango is blind / partially blind. She seems to navigate by smell, and if I do hand feed her she’s always sure to sniff it before eating it, and even then it takes a few strikes before she can get it. When she hunts she smells around the entire terrarium before locating it and makes several attempts and often misses the prey. My other gecko does none of this.

Does it look like it's staring right at the prey before it strikes?
