Hi anyone ever had this problem my Oscar has a bubble in has eye for a while now I’ve tried the medications from the store but nothing seems to sort it out it’s annoying me so am sure the Oscar must be hating it I’ve looked online but can’t seem to find anything on it. Thanks in advance

Sorry that I cn't offer an answer but I would suggest quitting the meds and going with large water changes. Unless you are sure of the exact isue adding meds ar usually not a good thing to do.

Look up "pop eye oscar", and you should get suggested treatment for your fish.

It's normally caused by fine air bubbles in the water. They can get into the fish and appear in the eyeball. There's no cure for it. Try to avoid have fine air bubbles in the tank. They can come from fine airstones or a small leak in a power filter.

Make sure the tank gets a big water change and gravel clean at least once a week to keep the waste and nitrates down. Clean the filter at least once a month too.
Make sure any new water is free of chlorine/ chloramine before it's added to the tank.
