Are his eyes okay

Ever since we’ve had him roughly 1 month from a pet shop we noticed his eyes have been puffy like.

But they don’t seem to bother him, you never see him brush them with his legs or have little bubbles I’ve seen other people speak about.

He does like to dig and hide alot in his coco coir substrate so could it possibly be maybe irritation from that. He was also in a dry environment when we got him.

I have bought tortoise suitable eye drops and have been using them for the past 2 days just in case it’s an infection

Okay those are good.
It may just be from the coir. It may be he has a bit bigger eye then some. They aren't red or sore looking and you said he's not bothering them. It may just be the way he is.
See what @Yvonne G thinks
