What kind of tortoise? What are the temps, humidity and substrate? How often do you soak and for how long? What does her diet consist of? If you can post pics of her and the enclosure that would help also. If you are using a coil type bulb, get rid of it ASAP, they cause eye problems.

What type of tortoise is she? How is her enclosure set up? What are the four temps (basking, warm side, cool side, night)? What is the humidity? what are you feeding? What type of UVB do you have?

Welcome to the forum! Don't panic! Amazing information from experienced tortoise keepers is headed your way after you share more info about your tortoise and how you have the set up. Pictures help also, if you can. : )
