All I can see is that the eye is red and he is squinting it a little. It could be due to an injury to the cornea or some type of trauma. I highly recommend you have him to your vet for an exam. The eye needs to be checked with an ophthalmoscope and have a stain test - obviously we can only tell so much from a photo. I don't think it is an emergency but try to get him examined as soon as you can get an appointment. In the meantime you can use this eye gel to see if it will help: ( )
