That goes by the common name of popeye. It has a few different causes, but when it is in just one eye, it is due to an injury.
This can go away on its own, but it takes time, over a month in many cases.
Sometimes, it can get infected. To treat that you would use erythromycin in a hospital tank.
If the fish is otherwise normal and if it is eating well, I wouldn’t do anything.
 
The one eye looks swollen - which may be due to injury/fighting - and if so - will likely heal on its own. However - can you give more information - such as how long you've had the fish - is it fighting/pairing, could the eye have been damaged from net/transfer, etc.

It can also be treated with a broad spectrum antibiotic such as kanamycin, etc in a hospital tank - however remembering that if it's an injury - moving it could be more stressful than watching. Of course flukes are possible for eye issues - did you QT the fish? Have they been treated with Praziquantel?

PS - IF you see marked aggression with the fish separation is best - you can sometimes use an acclimation box if you do not need medicine treatment

I have raised this pair of clownfish for 11 months, they fight each other, my water also the same parameters as normally.
the abnormal thing is only yesterday i found the stange plankton, it's look like shrimp but my tank didn't have shrimp. so i thank it's may be blue hermit crab.
for another I don't know what is the difference from normal.
