'Fraid not. The wound will most likely heal over without any problems, but the eye is gone for good.

I can speak for that, I have an mono-opto-oto, his eye just went funny one day but he's just fine otherwise

That is good to hear that he should be ok. I had him in with a Red devil and a Jag and the jag as been picking on him since he has been in the tank.

The eye socket is healing up and the cat is doing well.
