I was just wondering what exactly popeye is, one of my female bettas may have had it, i just heard of it a few seconds ago. It got really swollen around my female's eye and red and her eye popped out of it's socket, so i put her in quarantine with some Pimafix, she is much better now, just wondering if thats what it was
 
Popeye can be brought on by water parameters being out of whack, or an injury to the eye. Check your parameters to make sure everything is ok. This link has some good descriptions and pics of popeye. Scroll down to find it.
