I’m sorry for posting this in 2 sections I’m just desperate for an answer! 8F48D9AD-7E7F-4755-911C-9A706C20C7ED.jpegSo for the last 2 weeks I have been battling ich in my tank which I have been treating with copper and I have finally got to a point where there are almost no spots left on any of the fish except I’m noticing now white spots on my Oscar’s eye. initially there were white spots all over their bodies as well as their fins but those are now gone. It more or less looks like the spots that were on their body but I didnt notice these spots on their eyes until a few days ago. I did have a slight Dip in my copper level when doing a water change 3 or 4 days ago due to a miscalculation was that enough for the ick to re-manifest itself on their eyes? any help is GREATLY appreciated I’m so stressed out over dealing with this disease! Thanks you!
 
Looks like you are almost, but not quite, out of the woods. I would continue your copper treatment for another week since that is the path you went. Personally I bump temp to 86* and use salt for ich, but there are numerous methods that work and copper is one of them. Best not to combine methods or switch late in the game. Stay the course and he should overcome, doesn't look too bad.
