Turkey Poult one eye closed?

[Birdmaster8]

One of my new turkey poults recently started closing one of it's eyes. When I first got the bird both of it's eyes were there and working so it's just recent(The turkeys are a couple days old.)

I have included some photos below of what both eyes currently look like.

Have you seen any eye pecking? I put some blue colored glass stones around in my brooder to draw their eye and pecking. Turkeys will peck at shiny things including eyes sometimes. Just a thought.

Did this clear up? My turkey poults eye has been closed like that for a day now...no swelling and she is eating and drinking normally...
Did you have to do anything to help it?

Curious how to cure or prevent one eye closed on turkey poults. It must be a condition, 3 of mine have it from the same hatch. All 3 had both eyes open at hatch. They are now a week old.
Thank you.
