What is a Scottish Fold cat?
A Scottish Fold has ears that fold down close to the head, a round face, and usually white or other coat colors. Notably, the folded ears — though cute — come from a genetic disease. Scottish Folds typically have an inherited bone disease causing abnormal cartilage, showing as joint pain and stiffness from 2–6 months, so schedule regular checkups.
At first I saw redness in the eye, searched online and thought it was white-eye disease, used eye drops; after 1–2 weeks the eye was no longer red, but a yellow transparent bump appeared on the eyelid. After applying the drops it shrank a bit, but one morning after putting it in water and taking it out at night it turned white, then yellow again after drying. Is the white-eye disease unhealed or a leftover symptom?
Based on your description, the turtle likely still has white-eye disease and is not cured. Typical signs are bloodshot, swollen eyes, white corneal discharge, and inability to open the eyes. Change water often and apply an antibiotic eye ointment like erythromycin. Medicate and change water frequently to keep it clean and help recovery.
