    Hello, your turtle may have white eye disease and needs to be timely**, here is the information I found for you:

    Symptoms The eye area of the tortoise is inflamed and congested, gradually turning grayish white and gradually enlarged. The cornea and nasal mucosa of the eye are eroded due to inflammation of the eye, and in severe cases, both eyes are blinded and breathing is blocked. The outside of the eyeball is covered by white secretions, and the eyes cannot be opened.

    Sick turtles often rub their eyes with their forelimbs, move slowly, stop eating in severe cases, and finally die of exhaustion due to weakness complicated by other diseases. Some turtles have only one disease at the beginning of the disease, and if no action is taken, symptoms will soon develop in the other eye.

    The water should be changed frequently, the water should be kept clean, and nutritional drugs should be fed on time to improve the turtle's own resistance. Turtles that have been sick should be kept separately, and the original breeding container should be soaked in potassium permanganate solution for more than 30 minutes for disinfection and sterilization. For turtles housed in the same tank, if it is found that they already have white eye disease, other ones can be soaked in nitrofuracilin (or furazolidone) solution.

    This is both a preventative measure and can be used as an early stage**. Juvenile turtles should use 20 milliliter concentration, and juvenile turtles should use 30 milliliter concentration for adult turtles, and the length of immersion time depends on the water temperature. Soak once a day (40 minutes) for 3-5 days if necessary.

    For mild turtles (those who can still open their eyes and can actively eat), the turtle can be soaked in low-concentration salt water or kept in 15 milliliters of nitrofuracillin or furazolidone solution, and it can be cured in about a week. Or soak the liquid medicine with a concentration of 30 milligrams for 40 minutes a day, and soak it continuously for about a week to heal.

    If the turtle is seriously ill (refuses to eat and can no longer open its eyes), it should be soaked in an antibiotic solution (containing 500-1000 units of antibiotics per ml) for more than one hour every day, and then applied to the affected area with antibacterial eye ointment and placed in a dark place to promote the white secretion to fall off as soon as possible.

    For turtles with severe symptoms (eye erosion), soak the turtle in a liquid containing vitamin B and oxytetracycline. The liquid medicine is prepared in the ratio of 1 2 tablets of oxytetracycline and 2 tablets of vitamin B per 500 grams of water. Sick turtles may lose their eyesight.

    If the ** green turtle is **, the eye area should be smeared with 1% furazolidone solution, and the method of full body immersion should not be used.

    Or dissolve in feeding water with Medicin, 1 piece of glass goldfish tank per mouth, and this method should be used for green turtle disease. Streptomycin can also be dissolved in water, so that every 1 mg of water contains 100,000-200,000 international units, suitable for ** green turtles and other small water turtles and turtles disease.

    Mild white eye disease, most common in juvenile Brazil.

    Severe white eye disease, which can lead to blindness in both eyes.

    Hope your turtle is soon**!

    Please as soon as possible**!

    Summary. Hello, your little turtle eyes are red and swollen and can't open are mild and moderate infections oh, use chloramphenicol eye drops a day, an hour later, and an evening in erythromycin eye cream. Erythromycin is taken orally.

    For severe infections, antibiotic injections, topical chloramphenicol eye drops, and erythromycin eye cream are recommended. The swollen eyes of the baby turtle and the inability to open them indicate that they have white eye disease, and the main cause of white eye disease is poor water quality, and in this case, the water needs to be changed in time. Usually the water change cycle and the feeding cycle are the same, and each water change must be completely changed, because there is not much water itself, and it is polluted by feces, and it is impossible to improve the water situation if it is changed less.

    Changing the water can prevent the condition from worsening, but if you want to, you still need to give the turtle medicine. Generally, nitrofuracillin or furazolidone is used, 30 mg per liter of water should be added, and it is advisable to soak for 40 minutes. Usually after soaking for 3-5 days in a row, white eye will be **.
