[VIDEO] Eyes is hurt and the chicken shakes his head

[empat]

Hi,
I'm new to chickens ... and I already have an issue.
I had theses chickens since 1 week, they are all 5 months and a half, and yesterday I notice that one eye of a chicken is hurt. I think it was hurted during a fight, considering this one was always fighting.
Today the chicken rarely moves and is staying motionless, shaking his head vertically, opening his mouth, like in the video. What should I do ???
They have unlimited food, clean water, and the 5 other chickens are all good.
I just take a video of the chicken doing this : https://streamable.com/7xrnp
Thanks !

Feel of her crop this morning before she eats and drinks, and tell us if her crop is enlarged and puffy, or firm, or if it is empty. It looks like food may be coming back up in her throat, and she is swallowing it. If her crop is full, I would suspect an impacted or sour crop. But if her crop is empty, she might have something neurological happening. Can you put a warm wet wash cloth onto her eye for a minutes while holding her on your lap? That should get her eye to open so that you can look to see if it is okay, or if it has any drainage or pus inside. Eye ointment such as Terramycin or Vetericyn eye gel from a feed store would be good to put into the eye. Here is a good product—neosporin for eyes that you can order:

Ok so today she eat and drink correctly, without moving her head.
Her eye became inflated so I have put some eye ointment, but besides this her comportments seems normal. We'll see!

The swelling in the eye could be just swelling but watch it for any pus that gets around and behind the eye. Pus has to come out for an infection to clear up. Clean the ye twice a day, and apply antibiotic ointment. You may not need this yet, but if you see pus in the eye, here is a graphic video of how to remove it:
