the issue here is a lack of info from your end, making it tough to pinpoint a specific cause - anything could've led to this problem.

Still need more info here. What's the tank size, and do you have any pics of the affected eye? What's been its diet lately? Was the issue gradual or did it just show up overnight?

Give it some nori with garlic, a healthy fluffnut can make all the difference for any fish.

I'd take all the fish out - what's your stock, again - and give them a hyposalinity treatment in a quarantine tank, then leave the main tank empty for 6-8 weeks. If you don't have inverts, like live rock or corals, you might be able to do the treatment in the main tank, no quarantine needed.
