You are welcome, @Hema and glad you like them.
Nature can be freaky and I do see this kind of situation in Nudibranch (underwater snails/slugs) too. They adapt and cope with it, just like humans, those who are born with disabilities, will learn to do things to compensate for the disabilities they have :)
thanks Albert! You have a beautiful snail collection. i guess eye arrangement varies according to species.
I did find an abnormality in one of our local species. Besides being leucistic it also had fused eye stalks. Seemed to be doing well though.

I think the eyes are normal, @Hema.
Here is another of my Spotting of a different Snail with the eyes in the similar position :

are the eyes normal? i have seen them usually at the end of an eye stalk.
