Can I redo with while block exception handling

My exception handling catches the exception but redo throws some error.

I am using 3rd party api to get more than 5 million datas but that api frequently throws 500 error.

I am using exception handling and if any error occurs i want to redo the loop

eval{
while(my $productsRef = $se->iterate_products()) {
print Dumper($productsRef);
}
};
if ($@){
    sleep 30;
    redo;
}

The above code throws error if some exception is caught

cant "redo" outside the loop

You can't redo outside of loop or a basic-block,

REDO_EVAL: {
  my $ok = eval {
    while(my $productsRef = $se->iterate_products()) {
      print Dumper($productsRef);
    }
    1;
  };
  if (!$ok){
    # print "$@\n";
    sleep 30;
    redo;
  }
}
