Hey everyone! I was taking some portraits of one of my idolos and when reviewing them noticed these little squiggly things on its eye. Has anyone seen this before? At first glance I thought it was a parasite. Its due for a molt in the next week or so and I plan on monitoring it, but am curious if anyone has seen this before.

Lol This guy is i3 too. Its invisible to the naked eye and only when I was able to blow the picture up did I notice it. It seems fine otherwise.

 
To me it looks like the beginning of some eye spots that can form from things like rubbing their faces repeatedly on cage walls/lids. Looks pretty minor so hopefully a shedding will remedy it.
