here's a link that might help you: http://www.turtlepuddle.org/health/eyes.html

My first guess would've been maybe a chemical in the water irritating the eyes? Or possibly too much UVB exposure.

But keep in mind, nothing can substitute a professional herp vet's expertise. I use this website for guidance on health issues but always end up bringing my turtle to the vet to be on the safe side. Hope this helps!
