You need to stop making a new thread everytime you have a problem. It looks like your mantis has indeed damaged that eye. They're extremely soft any a moult. You shouldn't be handling it. It only shed yesterday.

Also this is the wrong section.

This should be in bugs and other insects, not the arachnids and true spiders section. Also, that eye looks very strange. I have no idea why it would be shaking either. Hopefukly it turns out ok, being able to walk and stand is a good sign though ;)

Yeah, the eye is bruised for sure. Could be from handling, could be from a molting injury. Be very careful, and honestly, I wouldn't recommend handling her at all right now.
