Default Musk Turtle Cloudy Eyes! please help :(

Hi
i am really in need of some advice. I have two Musk Turtles, one of which i have noticed has cloudy eyes, it looks rather like he is wearing a contact lense over both eyes. i noticed this just last week and am worried as he does not appear to be able to see the food that i put in, although he is eating fine. His vision is clearly affected and was wondering what the cause of this problem may be and how it could be solved.
Thank-you so much
Nat xx

It could be ammonia in your water or your Musk turtle could have an eye infection. If you rule out the ammonia, than a trip to the vets would be in order.
