I've had problems with BPs taken in as rescues and their eyes.

When I get one with stuck eyecaps I use a washcloth wetted with warm water, lay it on the eye for a few minutes, gently wipe with the cloth to see if the cap has loosened, and repeat till the cap comes off. If it's very stubborn I'll grab the tweezers to work the cap off, still using the wet cloth to moisten the cap.
