I think I posted about this before but I wanted to reopen the issue. My foxface has clowdy eyes. It's been this way since it was in quarantine where he was treated with prazi and copper. I didn't treat with anything else because I don't think I realized it wasn't normal till after he was in the display. It's both eyes and they both look the same. Not bulging or anything just clowdy. He seems fine otherwise, eats great etc.. It's been over 6 months now that he's been in the display. Is this anything to worry about?
He's hard to get a photo of but I think this one shows his eye pretty good

I had been looking through photos of them and it didn't seem like they had clowdy eyes but I will take your word for it. Thanks :)
 
They have pretty big pupils, I wonder if this is caused by light reflected off of the retina and not actually cloudy?
 
As above its normal. If you catch them in the right light you should see it looks like a greenish film. I think some led settings make them look cloudier.
I believe it's to do with their eyes being better in lower light conditions like dawn and dusk.
