Without being able to see the actual eye condition, it sounds like you are describing a bad corneal infection. It is important to have a veterinarian look at the eye and prescribe the correct treatment plan, whether your mouse needs oral or topical antibiotics (or both), so the infection does not spread to the other eye or to the other mousies.

I really don't advise trying to put together a do-it-yourself treatment, because vision may be at stake, as well as the possibility of infection spreading into the sinuses, throat, ears, lungs, and brain. Sometimes it is possible to reach a favorable outcome without going to a vet, but not going can also spiral terribly out of control.
