Help fish in pain?

[carol]

one fish in my tank has an injured eye and it is all bubbled out. He is the only fish with a problem and it is only one eye. I believe he injured it against a coral. I do not have a hospital tank but need to know if he is in pain or what I can do

Are you sure that its from hitting a coral or is it disease?

I have a Chromis damsel missing an eye.. I call him Left-Eye.. His just fell out one day I guess..

This is usually caused by a bacterial infection. One of the best things you can do are a couple of water changes, (space them out a few days though, and they don't have to be huge, about 10% is good). Also you want to watch the tank and see if any other fish is harassing the sick one. You may need to separate these fish if this is happening.
Wamp, sometimes if a diseased eye isn't taken care of they will eventually burst or fall out, but they don't just fall out for no reason!
