u cant really tell by that view? but is the eye bulging out? it looks like its popping out a 1inch???? might be droopy eye but its not tilting down? so i have no clue hahaha. sorry for the helpless help
You can't really tell from the pic, but it could be drop eye. If it is, it's a very common problem that effects aros, particularly silvers, as they grow. Here is a link to a site with some good info on drop eye, http://arowanaclub.com/stories.php?story=03/01/14/2046318.
If it's not drop eye, another possible cause of the problem could be "pop eye" or exophthalmus. This could be caused by a variety of problems, including bacterial infection, viruses, parasites, or problems with water quality. I experienced this problem with a managuensis I kept. I held off on feeding him for a few days and did some water changes, making sure that the water quality was immaculate, and it went away. Here is a site I found on pop eye that may be useful, http://www.flippersandfins.net/pop-eye.htm. You should first figure out the cause of the problem before treating it. Perhaps some clearer pics could help some of the more knowledgeable guys identify the problem. Good luck
