Did it appear overnight? Maybe one of the the clown loaches spiked that part of its eye when the Oscar got too close.

Looks like Lymphocystis to me. A non lethal viral growth. Clean water and good nutrition usually allows the fish to heal up on its own. Nice looking set up.

So should I do a big water change now
I normally do 50% every time , they used to it
Will that heel naturally ??
 
IMO, one 50% WC a week only. If the problem is in fact Lymphocystis, it's more or less a fish cold sore and has to run its course.
