Blind fish, or something else?

Question

So a few days ago, I purchased a few fish, ok, thats not the big deal, but one of them is a green cory cat, it was not until i got them home that I noticed he has something funky going on with his eye. Its not cloudy, it does not appear to be pop eye, or look infected. I have been keeping an eye on it, and it does not seem to be any better or any worse; he swims fine, and eats like normal. The eye just sort of looks like it has grown over or something like that, it still moves, but looks like the skin has grown over it. Is it possible that he could have just had an injury at some point, and that is just blind in that eye, or does it sound like something else?

Answer 1

He Probably Just Poked It On Something.  That Happened To One Of My Fish, What Your Seeing Is Probably A Scab Like Growth.  I Wouldn't Worry It Sounds Like He Is Doing Just Fine With It.

Answer 2

This is likely an infection, though probably not bacterial in origin.  Food soaked in metronidazole (Flagyl, Metronidazole, Hexamit, etc.), kanamycin (Kanaplex), or other protozoal effective medications would be a good idea.
