Sick duck? New to ducks need help

What kind of acv tabs ? I bought teramycin, I will give it to them tonight after they are done with their bath. I have the heat lamp on all the time, could that be irritating their eyes? Also they are still yellow, but have feathers.. is that considered fully feathered?
 
Can you post pics? How old?ACV liquid? Can you get it? Iv’ e never used tablets. Terramycin eye ointment? What type of bulb are you using In Your heat lamp? Red shouldn’t bother them but do you know the temps in their brooder? They look old enough they May not even need heat if inside.

Do you have diapers or an easily cleaned section of the house or other area that's climate controlled? Maybe keep them indoors until the temperature rises a bit. I have zero first hand experience with poultry of any kind, but I've been doing a lot of Google research. Does Jack seem to have trouble with his sight? If not it could be just something from his capillaries - scary but not harmful. Hopefully others here can give you a more complete/accurate answer.
 
They were born the first week in october so they are about 2 months old, yes eye ointment. I dont know the temp but it is a red bulb. I can try the acv, but can I use it with hydro hen? Its dextrose powder.
 
Okay so they both have red eyes now and I've heard them both cough, not a lot at all, maybe 3 coughs and I wont hear it for days, but now i can see some slight drying around the eyes and I saw like teardrops coming out of Jack's eye. I've given them terramycin eye ointment twice now I dont know if I'm doing it right, I put gloves on and an m&m size drop and smear it on their eyes. I'm getting really worried about them and everytime I look something up on google I get conflicting answers or no answers at all. I dont know If should be really worried or if I'm overly worried. I just ordered vet rx and I'll give that to them on wednesday when it arrives. I hope it helps. I'm just so new to ducks and I feel super lost, I wish I knew how to make them all better. I added a million pictures, hopefully someone can tell me how to help them
