I had an Indigo snake that developed cloudy eyes...they became so compromised that they turned completely white, not just opaque. I finally took the snake to a herp vet who did a culture and identified a bacterial infection. I gave the snake a course of intravenous antibiotics (not too difficult with a large scaled snake) and he recovered completely after about 3 months.
Hope this is helpful-
