    Interesting, My fish are getting that white glaze too...... Its cycling through all of them. I think its unlikley they all banged up their eyes. For me its healed within 2 days. I did a quick search, its usually poor water quality or poor food.

    What are your water parameters?

    If its none of those, It might be something in the water here, Im not to sure

    It's probably poor nutrition. I saw it a lot on salt water fish that went eating or weren't getting the propper diet. Try feeding a variety of foods, a good flake or pellet, and some good quality frozen or live brine shrimp/blood worms, and the cloudy eyes should clear right up.

    how about an actual water parameter reading? That would be something I check first.
