Blurry eye on my Achilles

[reefy]

I noticed today that my Achilles tang has an Blurry eye and trust me it doesnt look good at all can anyone tell me what cause it or how can I get it cure? hes currently acting normal(swiming eating...ich on and off...) please help!!!

I've had fish show that symptom. I suspect it is bacterial because it seems to me that once a fish has it, it doesn't ever get it again.

I had a majestic angel years ago that died as a result. My current Majestic also showed that same thing, but he kicked it and is doing just fine today. (I didn't intervene)

Often if its one eye, its just scratched but if its both, its a bacterial infection. Cloudy eyes are often just nothing but can be signs of bad things to come. I have lost fish very quickly after seeing a cloudy eye in the past. I would watch it closely.

If its just the one eye and he is eating/acting normal, I would say just leave him alone and I bet in a few days it will be gone. Doesn't sound too bad.

I have had fish get a cloudy eye when ich has shown up on the eye too, so it may just be a reaction to the ich.
