I read somewhere that wiping at the eyes can mean that they are being burned? My tortoise has always done this occasionally since I got him, I'm a little worried that I am. I have 160 watt MVB for my 4' x 3' open topped enclosure. It's about 12" from his shell to the top of the bulb. Basking spot stays between 90-100 degrees. On my second story I have a florescent bulb that is 65 watts to heat the small 1' x 1 1/2' second story.
Question is am I burning his eyes? Nothing swollen and he always has them open.
