How many gallons or litres is the tank.
How many fish and which type.
Water stats in ammonia, nitrite, nitrate.
Does the eye look cloudy.
Cloudy eye is a symtom of a desease not a desease in its own right.

[WILDER]

The tanks severely overstocked clown loaches need 90 gallon tanks.
I would try and rehome them when the whitespot has gone.
Need to know water stats with the tank being overstocked as well as the whitespot, bad water quality can cause cloudy eye in fish.
Tigar barbs do better in larger groups to cut aggression out.
Also they need larger tanks of about 20 gallons.
