His left eye is covered with that white stuff

X2Do you have plain old human eye drops, like artificial tears or allergy relief eye drops? You can use those and wipe that stuff off that is coming out of his eye, at least. The terramycin antibiotic eye ointment would be something to get for him, certainly, if you aren't going to a vet. I'm sorry, but no one can really diagnose that on the web, honey, not for sure. I wish I could do more. I know how much you love him.
I tagged casportpony (Kathy) for you to see if she has any ideas.

As @speckledhen has suggested. Gently clean the eye - you can flush it with some saline and try to get any gunk you see out of it.
A warm moist compress may be helpful in loosening any pus/gunk that may be in it. If the eye looks like it is infected, you can apply some Terramycin eye ointment or Vetericyn eye gel to the eye to see if that helps.
He may need antibiotic treatment as well, so vet care would be best.
It sounds like you love him very much.
Where do you live? In the US? Let us know and we can try to figure out what medications you can get.I don't know then what to do
