Eye Cloat?

how old is the fish in question? probably doesn't make that much difference but that is my shot in the dark

I have a ruby red peacock that sometimes this happens to its eye or eyes. Not sure what causes it, but i think its most likely from fighting or hitting it on a rock or something. SOme times his eye is jstu a bit cloudy and sometimes it worse and looks like he ripped it.

In both cases i jstu make sure that i keep the water quality perfect and he usually get better in a few days(eye is usually completely better and clear in a week). I have also used melafix to treat it and it seemed to help also.

So unless the eye looks really bad,like it has a infection and not jsut a bit cloudy then i wouldnt' worry too much.It should heal up by itself.
