Does this goldfish have popeye?

[FishSupreme]

They say it will look like a telescope goldfish with popeye but instead there’s a swelling in the back of the eye like tumor. I’ve done a treatment for Popeye and it did nothing. His eye also isn’t milky white at all. The front isn’t really swollen either just with a white ring. Idk what this is and it’s been persisting for a while now with the thing growing but nothing happening. Can anyone identify what this is?

Might be a tumour though not necessarily a malignant one.

Ye that’s what I thought I just don’t know how to take care of it.

What treatment have you done already? Keep the tank water as clean as possible! Consider an epsome salt bath, or add 1 tblspoon of epsome salt per 5 gallons of water to the tank.

The problem with tumours is that tehre is nothing we can do. Some can be removed surgically, if you can find a fish vet and afford the procedure but even when they are taken off, depending on the type they may grow back. Failing that remedy, all you can do is give the fish good care and if things get to the point where the fish hasn’t got any quality of life, you send it over the bridge so it won’t suffer.

It’s frustrating but there just aren’t any meds for this problem.

He's swimming fine. Had a problem with tumors but was praying for none near the eyes.

I have the salt but I'm worried that the ph change will kill him since I'm wasn't sure what it is. I did Maracyn (Since I've heard it's relatively safe) when I first noticed the changes a couple months ago. Nothing changed, and it just kept growing. I did more later maybe a month ago in some vain hope it would fix something this time (nothing changed). After that, I've just tried to keep the water clean.
Thanks for the advice.
