    Erythromycin can.

    As long as the white eye disease is not very serious, it will generally improve on its own as long as it is dry and nourished for a while. Because this disease is usually caused by water quality problems, it is important to get it out of the problematic water first. However, because the turtle is a water turtle and cannot leave the water for a long time, it should be bathed with clean water two or three times a day during the dry breeding stage, and the bathing time is about 15 minutes each time.

    Chloramphenicol eye drops or ointment (tobramycin eye drops, erythromycin or chlortetracycline ointment) can be applied to the eyes, preferably in the eyelids. In addition to tobramycin eye drops**, which are slightly more expensive, several other eye creams are almost sold in pharmacies for only one dollar.
