Black Molly with Eye Issues

[applechickbsn]

First of all, let me see if I can get a pic to post here.

Hope this works...
Anyway, just today I noticed my molly with like a white covering around his eyes..If you look closely, you can see it in the picture. The white spot toward us is some of it, and the white above his head, by his nose, is from the other side.
He's still swimming around and eating, and carrying on, but it looks strange.
Anyone know what it is and how i can help him get rid of it?

Thanks a million!

Try a water change first - poor water quality causes most eye problems. You could also use methylene blue or a bit of salt depending on what other fish are in there and raise the temperature a degree or two (if it's not already high).

Agreed.
