Sometimes the best thing to do is wait a couple of days and see if the eye clears up and the swelling goes down.
My Passer Angel, have had for 16 years, have gotten this in the past a couple of time, actually another Passer Angel that I have just got it, after a feeding, and the eye is starting to clear up after 2 days. This is something that I like to call a "Black Eye" when either during feeding or fighting with another fish the fish banged it eye against a piece of rock or coral. If you have good water condition the eye may clear up in time. If the fish is not getting better in a couple of days then you need to remove the fish and treat it.

::My flame angel's eye is milky and bigger than the other eye. It also looks kind of wrinkled. Is this pop eye? And what should I treat it with and would the treatment not be good for my other fish and live rock?

:I think it is pop eye because it looks exactly what pictures of fish with pop eye look like so what should I treat it with? If you could help my little flame angel I would be very happy.
