In the link in Isabella's post at the sticky at top it says

"White or gray fungus on eyes.
Cataracts
OTC medication for fungus."

awww.. sad to hear that little prince jimmy is having some trouble.. hopefully those links will help you find the right med for him. those are links that we use for finding what meds to use ourselves. best of luck with the little guy and we hope your daughter's been up to more 'criminal activity' at school before summer break.

I wish there were more reference books out there that would not only describe what the disease looks like; but photograph the diseases as well. Even some of the best resource books out there may list pretty much all of the diseases, but they will only photograph a few of them... I wish you all the best!

How is prince Jimmy doing? did you try some meds on him and if so, did they help him any?
