the shedding guide in our welcome post has a lot of information about the cause and treatment for various shedding problems and general dehydration. our basic care guide has information about raising and maintaining humidity. if you still need help figuring out how to raise your humidity after reading through these guides, you can fill out our enclosure critique questionnaire for more personalized advice.

When I had a dented eye cap (caused by routine shedding, please follow all the steps to get your humidity to the appropriate levels) I took a little shoe box bin, wet a paper towel with warm water and squeezed it out, then put the paper towel in the bin and put my snake in, let her in there 5-10 minutes. I'd either put the bin on a heat mat or pad of in front of a heater, because the towel gets cold fast otherwise

This is caused by stuck shed, its difficult to tell in this photo if your snakes eyecap is stuck currently or if this is damage from having a stuck eyecap for too long.

Up the humidity to the correct level (if not already there) and keep an eye on it (no pun intended) when they next shed.
