I got home after being gone a couple days, fed my fish and saw that my damsel's eye is bulging out of its head. how could this have happened and what should I do. he was eating but I could tell he couldn't see very well. Any help?

Since it's only for one eye, I'd say he just bumped/scraped his eye on a rock in which case it'll heal on its own in time. Just give him clean water and good food.
 
It's called popeye: often caused by impact injury. He may lose sight in that eye, but it will probably heal. Google it and ask in the disease forum.
