Geckos (house lizard)who lack eyelids have a clear scale covering each eye. While this scale gets shed like the rest of the lizardβs external scales, the eye scale must be kept clean so the lizardβs vision does not become impaired. To facilitate this, geckos use their long, sticky tongues to remove debris from the eye.
It's a house lizard (Gecko) under a stone. Able to get close up shots....
