Default Cloudy Eye

I have a fish where one of his eyes are milky lookign and the other is clear. It also just hangs out in a corner fo the tank and rarely takes a lap in the tank. Does anyone know what this eye problem is and should i pull him from the tank before it infects another fish?

Thanks for the help all and before you ask i am at work so no i dotn have tank parameters.

So i take from what your are saying is it is nothing to worry about and the cludy looking eye is just kind of like a black eye on a human?
