Queen with clouded vision

Any advice for a fish with clouded eye sight?

Ive noticed it the past 3 weeks. Sure its been effecting her longer. She was always in the mix by the food but wasnt actually getting anything.
I noticed she wasnt out in the open as usual so started watching her much more closely. I could believe she wasnt seeing food within an inch of her nose.
Real active feeders in the tank with her.
Now I close all pumps and look for the largest flakes. I have to over feed the tank for her to acquire some food. 1 in 20 ratio on getting a bite of food.
 
Have you had the angelfish for less than three months, or have you added any fish recently? One common cause of cloudy eyes in angelfish is a Neobendenia fluke infestation. Not likely to just show up in a long term captive though. Can you post a picture?

Ive had her over 2 years with no other fish added since.

She's not bumping into rock that I can tell when she dives to hide. At least not yet.
No problems with other fish.
