Bulging eye treatment - Boa

My boa has had a bulging eye since 07/07/10. I took him to the vet here in Milwaukee and although they say they treat reptiles they have no experience. If the vet says to me, "make sure he closes his eye" its time to leave.

Does anyone know if this is even treatable? Its not due to mites so i'm assuming its a trauma infection. The vet did give me eye drops and injected him with Ceftazidimine. Reading a boa care book I had at home, it was suggested that he would need systemic (I'm assuming the injections) and eye drops.

If anyone has any knowledge of treatment or the outcome of such an infection please post. I have plans for this snow boa and I would really hate to lose him. Thank you!
