Sorry to hear your ham is still having a problem with her eye.
There isn't really an alternative to sand or at least nothing that will serve the same purpose, coconut fibre wouldn't be much use for anything really, you can get coconut fibre chips sold as a reptile substrate which would be fine for her to have a dig in if she liked it but nothing can really replace sand.
I hope her eye improves soon.
