==Introduction==
A bullous spectaculopathy is an accumulation of clear fluid in the subspectacular space that presents as a bulging of the [[Spectacle|spectacle]]. It is a common problem caused by the blockage of the nasolacrimal duct, which is often secondary to infectious stomatitis. In newborn snakes it may be caused by a congenital agenesis of the lacrimal duct.
