I'd try a steam bath before you start. That should loosen the skin somewhat. Are you sure it's due to a shedding problem?

Question

no i am not. it might be that something got in his eye. I ma wondering what would be a good solution to flush out his eye with out irritating him or his eye any more than it already is.

I's recommend a steam bath, as before, and check very carefully on the eyelids, to see if you can spot any shed left. The steam should get him to open his eye so u can look. I dont generally like flushing anything on the head, bc of the risk of getting liquid in the nose or ear. A moist qtip should be ok, just try not ot touch the eyeball itself.
