Hard to say what those lines could be. Have they gotten thicker?

Yes... few of the lines have turned black while few are this there... growth lines ? :/

He has stopped eating anything now and the eyes have turned pink slightly in corners.... please someone help me

I applied cod liver oil capsule yesterday but it did nothing... I want my little heart to be fine again :/

I'd try the Zoo Med turtle eye drops. Cod liver oil only helps when there is a vitamin deficiency.

I took him to a vet... theres no vet for exotic pets nearby and the doctor said she has treated many RES ... So She said that its because of the climate change... she prescribed : Teramycin Capsule , Dexona tablets and Visyneral Drops... which she said to dissolve in the water and then keep the turtle for 30 minutes in it twice a day... and an eye drop 'Gentamicin eye drops'
Will this cure him ? :/

I'm not familiar with those medications. Has he shown any improvement yet?

Our turtles have the same name. Great choice :-)

I applaud you for taking your little one to the vet. Hope its eyes get better soon!

@Steve - Yes a little bit he is eating food properly and little active now.. though he is keeping his eyes closed most of the time...

@Kansasslider - Awww thank u.. Slidy sounds cute ! as mine always slides inside the water

Just to let you know team... slidy is all fine now.. his eyes are perfect and so is he

I just bring him under direct sunlight everyday in a basket and let him walk in the garden .... also he eats live fishes now (Molly ,Guppy ,silver dollar, Feeder Fishes) and his pellets

I make sure I am not over feeding... He looks healthy ! Thanks to this forum
