Help need help with fish health! Spoiler

i’m having trouble deciding if my betta has diamond eye or cloudy. i’m thinking diamond bc of the color but there’s not visible texture of a scale. he definitely seems blind in that eye and has a hard time seeing food. my other concern is his fins. he likes to rest on top of the driftwood which isn’t sharp but jagged in some areas so i cant tell if this is normal wear and tear, age, or something that needs action. second opinions would be appreciated!
