I don't know what to do... I don't want my damsel to die, because he is the first fish we got and I want to keep him! Is there anyone out there that would know what to do? If his eye does pop is it going to affect the other fish? Please help!
 
Sounds like a bacterial problem often associated with an eye injury (probably from netting the fish). These problems sometimes will clear up on their own (fish's immune system) but if you don't see progress then QT combined with some antibiotics may be required. Maracyn 2 is readily available and should help.
