Drop eye- Doctor Ark can help remove fatty deposits.
Protruding eye - better see Vetduck. Add epsom salt first to ease off the water retention.

Doc Ark - if dropped eye is very serious, got cure or not? How? Open eye surgery?

if the de is very serious,operation can only minimize the condition.you will need to cover up or keep the aro in a fgt for better recovery result.

buldging-eye in itself is not a disease but is more a symptom of an underlying infection. The eye bulges out in this manner because of fluid build up, either behind the eye or in the eye itself. The first signs you will notice is that one or even both eyes are starting to bulge. Slowly with time it can bulge to such an extent that the fish will look really shocking with the bulge.

Many of the aros I have seen with droopy eye condition only have droopy eye on one side, but not the other. If this is due to accumulation of fatty deposits from diet, why does it only affects one eye?

Cant imagine if this theory applies to humans.... a person puts on weight and the fatty deposits only accumulates in one side of the body.....

Boss D24, my guess is the master eye like human being.
