The droop eye syndrome would usually have a genetic predisposition, which would usually point to a muscular laxity that results in some of the aros having droopy eyes. The other predisposition cuold be that of a shallow eye socket.

As for fatty diet, I'd think not. The fatty accumulation behind the socket may have a part to play, but without the predisposition, this is not likely. Furthermore, such fatty accumulation is not likely to occur in young aros.

For Voltron's case, I'd think that the distracting blinker lights and the ping pong balls helped correct the aro's condition. They were probably always looking upwards and this is liken to conditioning or toning the circum-occular muscles, which then hold the eyeball in place.

There's also a variable factor with the aros. Each individual can be quite different in temperament and behaviour, and what can be considered a welcome distraction for one, can be a spooking factor for the other.

However, I'd say this doesn't constitute a cure, technically speaking. This is a correction, like how our myopia is being corrected with glass.

Voltron, perhaps you'd want to remove the visual stimulant for the same length of time, and see if there's a relapse of the condition?

Cheers,

Kenny

Thanks Kenny, for the feedback and suggestions. Will try out without those blinkers and update again soon.

Cheers

Thanks, bro but me not an aro master at all. If can keep the aro happy, healthy and well fed is already very very good for me.

Cheers.

I think by introducing GF as feeder it will contradict your treatment. So I will say all you have done is correct except by feeding GF, and toman.

Thanks bro. The pic was before the curing ie. with DE. After curing pics are not taken yet.

I am still learning and can you elaborate on this, please?
