In the process of breeding the Brazilian tortoise, it is observed that their eyes are swollen and unable to open, so it may be that they are sick and need timely treatment. Specifically, the cause of this phenomenon is likely to be "white eye disease", which is a relatively common disease in Brazilian turtles.

To treat the "white eye disease" of the Brazilian tortoise, we need to adjust the treatment according to the specific situation. If only a few Brazilian turtles show symptoms of illness, they can be fished out and isolated, treated separately, and the original containers disinfected. The specific treatment process is: can use some antibiotic eye drops to smear, smear 1-2 times a day, if the symptoms are serious, also need to inject penicillin, once a day.

If most of the Brazilian turtles in the container show symptoms of illness, then directly soak the turtle body with antibiotics for 30-60 minutes each time. When breeding after cure, attention should be paid to the prevention and treatment of this disease. This disease is generally due to poor water quality, resulting in the breeding of many bacteria in the water, and then the Brazilian tortoise may suffer from this disease.
