My puppy of 6 weeks has green film inside his left eye, and a lighter film in his right, my mom and i think he's going blind, but he dosent act like it. Is he going blind or is this some sort of eye infection?

Without actually examining the eyes it is hard to know but It could be an eye infection. He should be examined by a veterinarian to determine the cause. If he has an eye infection, an antibiotic will be needed to clear up the infection.
