It does look like your fish has an illness, but I've never seen that before. Maybe someone will chime in on this. In the meantime, make sure the aquarium water is aerated and turn up the heater on your aquarium. Add some Stress Coat and add aquarium salt when needed. I think that is a correct procedure, but I haven't had sick fish in a while.

What are readings, PH, Amm, Nitrate, how long has the tank been going?

I'm not convinced that this betta is ill. All I see are possible color patterns on the fish and nothing to indicate that he is certainly sick. However, when my betta had cloudy eye I did 50% water changes every day or every other day and it eventually cleared. I would not use aquarium salt unless there is a specific illness you are trying to cure with it.

That was the problem, the eyes and i have been changing water. Its in a solitary 1gallon tank..

This fish looks fine, now. Most of the betta in stores have ammonia burn on their eyes due to sitting in their own filth in those tiny jars. It looks like it has already cleared up. I definitely wouldn't go tossing chemicals or meds in the tank just yet. Make sure you tank is in good order first (fully cycled, right temperature, pH, 0 ammonia, 0 nitrite, low nitrate or 0 nitrate).
