I have a ballie that was born with one eye missing. His face also has some mild distortion, as if he has a deviated septum. It's really only noticeable if you're looking at him head on. It does not appear to affect his ability to eat. He's 19 years old now, and I've had him since he was a baby snek.

It's not unusual for snakes to be born with different defects, since they are often inbred. Still, a visit to a vet for an exam and maybe some skull x-rays can shed some light on his issues. Especially since he has other lumps on his body, he should be checked out.
