About 3 days ago I noticed one of my mollies had pop eye.

I went the LFS and they gave me something called Aquari-Cycline tablets.

I put the tablets in, and a few hours later my water looked like tea without milk. I wasn't concerned because the guy said that's what it would look like.

He said to leave it like that for 3-4 days, then do a waterchange. So I'll be doing the water change tomorrow, but although her eye has gone down, I can still see the clear sort of buldge there.

Does that mean it isn't fixed?

What else can I do?
 
first thing would be to finish the course and then do a water change as instructed, after that it would be best to test the parameters of the water, (nitrate, ph, nitrite and ammonia,) Pop Eye is often caused by toxins in the water and so if any levels are high then this could be slowing down the healing process of your fish
