    Hello, the Brazilian turtle is suffering from white eye disease, which is mainly caused by deterioration of water quality or alkaline water quality. If the disease is mild, you can barely open your eyes and eat. If the disease is severe, the tortoise will stop eating and will not be able to open its eyes at all.

    If the symptoms are not severe, the keeper only needs to take a medicated bath with nitrofuracillin powder, and the dosage is 20 mg per liter of water for juvenile Brazilian turtles and 30 mg per liter of water for adult Brazilian turtles. A 40-minute medicated bath a day, a continuous medicated bath for a week, can be recovered. If the symptoms are severe, you may need to take a medicated bath with penicillin or oxytetracycline, and apply an anti-inflammatory ointment to the area around the eyes, and make sure that the surrounding environment is dark.
