You might be suprised... she might have a tiny bit stuck on giving the impression of an indentation..soak her for awhile, it can't do any harm. If its not that I'd just get her to the vet ASAP rather than a pet shop..

Glad shes fine

Once had a Red Tailed Boa that got a cut on its eye, dunno how.
Took it to a specialist vet and they gave us some eye drops. Few days later his eye doubled in size and almost popped out of his head. Wasn't very nice and eventually he died. Was a very friendly snake and was a good size. Not a lot you can do though.

I would get her checked out by a vet anyway. Something was there, better to be safe than sorry!

this is a fairly common thing with royals...as long as there are no retained eyecaps etc i wouldnt worry too much...i have not had it on any of my royals i have had but i know of a lot of others who have, if you are that worried then possibly get her checked over for your peace of mind...but as said if it has gone and was causing no discomfort i doubt many vets will be able to say or do much.....
