Fish Health - Popeye
I've very little to say as
there is only one treatment - injections. Nothing else works, but first check
to be sure it's not a bruise. I give a fish 14 days. If the eye has not
recovered I either start treatment or in badly infected fish the eye must be
removed to prevent infection entering the fish's head.
You can check to
see if a fish has lost its sight by using a mirror. A fish will move from the
refection. A fish that has just gone blind in one eye will sort the problem out
itself over time by turning the eye to
muscle.
