Your turtle has a condition called avitaminosis (vitamin A deficiency) Puffy eyes and eye infection are the first symptom to occur...the second is a Respiratory infection. Clean the water good and use some reptisafe or some water dechlorinator...You can also get some eye drops for turtles at most petstore that works really well...unless a vet is really into aquatic turtles I doubt they would have the particular eye drops you need but most petstores carry it Call the vet anyway just in case. Also you will need to suppliment the vitamins and get the vitamin A back up. Talk to your vet or a reputable pet dealer about what vitamin and eye drop products are available in your area. It is a serious problem but not one that is really hard to overcome. Good Luck
