    I am not a doctor, but my understanding is that gluten is a protein. Proteins are collections of amino acids. The protein gluten is a particular set of amino acids and when eaten is processed by the animal’s body into a different set of amino acids. The proteins in beef, pork, lamb, chicken (and eggs) are all different sets of amino acids. A number of different celiac disease websites have helpful lists of foods containing gluten. I have not seen any that list eggs as something to avoid. If your doctor has recommended that you avoid gluten then he or she should be able to provide a comprehensive list of what to avoid.
