Turtle white eye disease is a common disease that usually manifests as inflammation and edema of the skin around the turtle's eyes, causing the eyes to look bulging and white. Treatment for this condition will vary depending on your turtle's health, severity of the condition, and choice of treatment.


If you've taken your turtle to the vet and started treatment, treatment for white eye disease in your turtle will typically take anywhere from a few days to a few weeks, depending on the severity of the condition and the effectiveness of the treatment. If the turtle's condition is mild, it may only require some oral antibiotics and ointments to cure it; if the condition is serious, surgery may be required. It is best to follow your veterinarian's advice and treatment plan and complete all treatment procedures on time to ensure that the condition can be controlled and cured.


Please note that even if your turtle seems to have fully recovered, you need to continue to monitor its health, make sure its living environment and diet are in compliance, and take it for regular checkups to ensure it remains healthy.
