My iguana (juvenile) got an ant bite on his eye and it has swollen up to twice the size it should be and is turning black underneath. Any suggestions on what to do in this situation? What ca you use for a small iguana to take swelling down?

Hi there, Welcome to the forum!
Ant bites can be very harmful and could cause a lot of problems. At this point with all the swelling there isn't really anything you could do to help it other than take him to a vet ASAP. He/she could lose the eye if it gets infected.
It would help a lot if you could tell the vet what type of ant he/she was bit by. How did she/he get bit anyway? Just curious.
A vet visit should deffinatly be done as soon as possible this time..
