How is your drake doing?
The medical term for what you are likely seeing is conjunctivitis which in short is inflammation of the conjunctiva lining, which will often result in foamy, red, swollen eyes. Lack of head-deep bathing water, environmental pollutants, respiratory diseases, and trauma can all induce an inflammatory response of the conjctiva.
Presumably, you are not seeing any other respiratory-related symptoms, in which case this would not be considered critically severe to the bird.
As far as treatment for the eyes, you should start off by flushing them copiously with warm saline, or ophthalmic drops; afterward, you can apply an ophthalmic ointment such as Terramycin to address any bacterial overabundance on the eye. This should be repeated until total progress is seen.
During this time, the bird should have access to head deep water.
If there are any environmental issues, dusty feed, bedding, or mold you may think could be causing this, you should address them as soon as possible to prevent it from reoccurring in the future.

thanks I have kelp powder and calcium powder mixed in the feed so that could be dusty feed maybe and he already has head deep water and I clean it daily but I'll try the saline and that stuff hopefully it works
