SW,
If the spectacles don't come away, then they will stay on there until the next shed, and might hinder the snakes already poor vision.
I have seen snakes that have had several spectacles built up, I remember one Burmese python with 4, boy was it relieved to get rid of them.
They can suffer from eye infections with retained spectacles, but it is quite rare, more the case that their vision is impared.
