Most are white eye diseases,**: water quality may deteriorate due to excessive stocking densities or failure to change the water in a timely manner. The disease is mostly seen in Brazilian painted turtles, turtles, spotted turtles, brocade turtles, etc., and the incidence rate of juvenile turtles is high. The reference is the encyclopedia's "turtle white eye disease".
Symptoms: The eye area of the turtle 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.
Prevention and control: The water should be changed frequently, the water quality 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), first remove the white matter and white necrotic epidermis in the eye, and continue to clean up if there is bleeding. The turtle is then soaked in a liquid containing B vitamins 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.

Summary. 1. The sunken eyes may be a potential serious rot causing long-term lack of food or refusal to eat, it may be a serious internal organ infection, it may be a large number of parasites in the body, and it may be severe dehydration. and other causes of long-term malnutrition.
2. Symptomatic conduct**. If the infection is caused by bacteria, it is recommended to use injectable antibiotics**, and slowly replace body fluids in severe dehydration. 3. To supplement multi-dimensional element recuperation, you can choose Jinshierkang or Shancun tablets and other oral administrations.
The first course of recuperation is one month, every 500 grams of turtle weight per day, and one third of the size of a grain of rice is taken. After a month of long-term recuperation, oral administration twice a week is sufficient, excessive use of multi-dimensional elements, increasing the burden on internal organs. **Recuperation time, some have obvious effects for more than a month, and some need up to half a year to a year of recuperation.
4. For turtles that refuse to eat, feed them with an appropriate amount of food every two or three days.

First of all, does color have an impact on the life of a turtle? Birds and fish show off their colors when courting, indicating that color works for them; Butterflies and bees that feed on nectar should look for flowers, and knowing color should also be necessary for survival; There is no color-dependent behavior in the tortoise's life, and it is not of much significance to show that the tortoise at least has the ability to recognize colors;
Secondly, from the perspective of turtles' living habits, due to their lack of agility, many of them come out at night, and we know that many nocturnal animals are not sensitive to color, such as wolves, owls and mice are color blind, so it can be assumed that turtles may also be color blind;
In addition, from the physiological structure of the turtle's eyes, the number of cones on the retina is not large, and even if it exists, it will not be too sensitive to the sensation of color. So we can imagine that turtles will not have a strong ability to recognize colors at least.
Turtles have good eyesight among reptiles. You can see objects up to 15-20 meters away.

White eye disease
The main reason for getting white eyes is that the water quality is not good, and you can't raise turtles directly from tap water.
Tap water must be dried for 2 days before it can be used to raise turtles, or directly use cold boiled water Usually pay attention to the water quality Generally, the water should be changed immediately after it eats and the water is dirty.
First of all, the sick turtle must be dried up, but it must be soaked in water 2 to 3 times a day for 30 minutes each time, and each time it is soaked, it will be soaked for 10 minutes in salt water, and the proportion of salt water is 1% to 5%, too much or too long to soak the finger with filial piety will cause edema
Salt is the same salt used for cooking at home
If you don't eat, add glucose water to the water you soaked in for 30 minutes.
I want the kind of glucose powder that I bought at the pharmacy that can be flushed and drunk, and throw in some fresh shrimp meat when I am almost finished brewing for 30 minutes, small pieces, and raw.
Don't feed the turtle cooked or salty or stale food) to see if it eats or not, just pick it up and soak it in salted water for 10 minutes.
Give it drops daily with chloramphenicol eye drops.
Drop 3 times a day
Apply chlortetracycline eye ointment at night before bedtime.
That's how I cured my turtle, and I hope it will help you, and tortoise white-eye can be cured in a little more than a week, and in a few months.
However, if you have soaked in light salt water for a short time every day for a month, then don't soak in light salt water anymore, insist on eye medicine, dry nourishment, and bath
Too much salt intake is not good for turtles.
When it's healed, the white coat will come off on its own
So don't peel it off yourself.

That may be your turtle eye is infected, the most convenient way is to use some antibacterial drugs such as head packs (generally one at a time, if it is a capsule, the powder inside) crush into a powder foam and pour it into clean water (preferably pure water) and then put the turtle and turtle into it, the amount of water is not too much, but not too little, can pass the back of the turtle and turtle, change this water once a day, until the turtle's eyes are better! I've used this method several times and it works, but if the turtle's eyes are already thick, it may not work! So give it early with this**!

Chlortetracycline eye ointment is examined and touched.
Well, first of all, clean up the white thick inside, take a cotton swab as much as possible to get out, and then add some chlortetracycline, and then find a place with a moderate temperature for him to rest, stick to it for about a week, and it will get better, and regular sun exposure is okay.
It should be on fire, pay attention to anti-inflammatory.
Put it in 200ml of clean water with cephalosporin, soak it, apply gold enzyme eye ointment to him at night (apply it on its eyelids), for 4 consecutive days, it will be a little open (you can stop using or use less cephalosporin in the future), and then I will use pearl eye liquid to drop its eyes, the most important job is to feed him food, because it can't see at this time, so it may not be able to eat for the turtle's diet, I will feed him chicken, beef, pork, fish, and raw pork liver (it seems that it prefers to eat this) You have to be patient when feeding it, The first time I fed him, it took 30 minutes, you can put the food lightly and touch its nose, the turtle will have its own resistance when it is full, try to feed it every day, if he doesn't eat it, you can also feed milk, otherwise it will starve to death (note** is not to hurt its eyes). >>>More
