Black Moor possible pop-eye?

Their eyes are sometimes slightly different sizes. Also, popeye usually
affects both eyes. If one eye is affected it's usually due to trauma of some
kind.
I think if it was popeye you would know for sure. It looks pretty nasty with
a white fluid filled bagel shape ring around it.
I wouldn't worry too much if it was my fish. Just keep a careful eye (excuse
the pun!) on it and as long as nothing changes I should think he's fine.

A few weeks ago I purchased my first Black Moor, it is quite a young fish.
After a week in a small tank it was moved into the main tank, with a
light.
It was only then I noticed one of its eyes was larger than the other.

It kind of pointed to it having pop eye. Treated with Interpet (I am from
the UK) Internal Bacteria treatment. The other day I made a trip to a
different LFS for another reason, and they had new black moors in, most of
them seemed to have the same kind of eye as mine.

So maybe I jumped to the wrong conclusion and mine is fine. I will try
and
take a photo later if I can, but do the eyes grow over time when they are
young? The large eye looks a normal shape, just bigger than the other.

I tried looking online for a picture of a pop-eye, but couldn't find one.
