This is likely a result of scratch or injury. It is treatable and should be performed in a quarantine setting using ethromyacin ( Maracyn/Maracyn 1)My bi color angel has a cloudy eye for 3 days now. I set up a quarantine tank last night. Im curious what medicine I need to get to help him out. Im assuming its a bacterial infection. Closes place to get meds is petco as well.
Well I went ahead and got everything for the qt. Unfortunately the only thing for bacterial infection has was the anti fungal fritz and the bottle I got. According to reviews it does the trick and should see progress in about 2 days.

How many times do you do that? Not real sure how to do that either. I could google it. And he is in qt right now. See how he progresses in next couple days.
one packet per day for 5 days and reassess the eye
So he has been in the qt for 10 days. I used api fin and body cure which worked well. He does still have a white line in his eye but it hasnt changed since day 6. So I was thinking of putting him back in the display tank. Whats the best way to do that?
Is it eating well and acting normally? Is so, you should be able to move it back ok. Just avoid getting its spines caught in the net.
As long as there isn’t a difference in water quality, you can just move it over. If there is a salinity or temperature difference, you would need to acclimate it.
