Eyes out and not its natural self =`[

can you see its eyes?

my turtle is always swimming it comes to the glass when it sees me and it always eats, i feed it turtle food, but for the past two days it hasn't been eating its been sleeping and its eyes have gotten huge, they sort of pop out, i dont know whats wrong and i dont think its the water or its eating habbits because i have two turtles and the other one is okay... well when i put the sleepy one in the water it quickly gets its head out and wipes its eyes dry i dont know whats wrong.

Turtle Eye Problems
by: Shelly

Turtle eye problems are serious.

First, separate the two turtles. You do not want a sick one passing a disease on to the healthy one.

Take the one with eye problems to the vet. Without vision, a turtle will often starve to death. Even without starvation, the underlying problem will often make the turtle very sick in general.

Best wishes.

Keep it slow and steady.
