Is he blind ?

I got this snake head few months ago the store said its an albino snakehead. When I got him he had red eyes. I noticed recently that he was unable to see the food when i was feeding. Yesterday I moved him to a new tank thats when i noticed his eyes. He is otherwise well and feeding.

Hi,

No its albino striata.
The pics are not quite good, tak ebetter ones and eye closeups. Or describe what looks wrong with the eyes

Could be the angle of the pictures. But it appears both of his corneas are damaged.

Close ups . Its not the cornea. The whole of the inside is white and in the other the retina(red) is bearly visible through the pupil which also is deformend.
