Sorry to see your fish like this. Maybe one of the R2R Fish Medic guys can take a look for you.

Is the fish's other eye fine?
Is it still eating?

If "yes", then this is likely some mechanical damage to the eye.
If "no" to either question, then something else is going on - if you can post a video, something may jump out at me.

Here is an article I wrote some time ago on fish eye health:

  • Not much. I’m willing to adjust my routine

  • Not at all. Feeding demands don’t limit my stocking choices

  • I usually learn about the demanding feeding schedule after buying the fish!

  • I haven’t really considered this before
