Eye issue?

I have a Cochin hen who is always sort of a mess— if it’s not one thing it’s another, though she always pulls through. This eye is looking especially awful though. I’ve brought her inside, washed her vent area since it was looking rough, and washed her eye with anti-microbial wash but…any other thoughts?

What’s going on, here? Fowl pox, maybe? I’ve got plenty of meds but don’t want to dose her unnecessarily, of course.

Looks like it might be Fowl Pox.
Is it both eyes or just the one?
You can put a thin layer of Terramycin eye ointment on the scabs, it looks like she's been scratching her face making it worse.

Have you noticed any bugs on her? Lice/mites/fleas?
