It is very difficult to say what it may be just by looking at some photos. My best guess would be some injury/inflammation to the cornea due to mild trauma. He would need an exam in person with a vet so they can use an ophthalmoscope to get a better look at the eye. In the meantime you can use this eye gel to see if it helps. https://www.amazon.com/Vetericyn-Ophthalmic-Irritations-Recommended-milliliters/dp/B00HYRZFMK/ref=sr_1_2?crid=2YUXA6X4TN3N&dchild=1&keywords=vetericyn+ophthalmic+pet+gel&qid=1588708667&sprefix=vetericyn+oph%2Cspecialty-aps%2C168&sr=8-2
