Confused

I alway do 100% water change for all my bettas. 10%, 20%, 30% water change to me, only apply to gold fish or other "die easily" types. My bettas are very happy when i change 100% water everytime. Try it, bettas are pretty tough well if the water you put in is declorined and is not freezing cold. Popeye is pretty nasty. My fish never had popeye but i look on the internet pictures. It looks scary as crap.

If the tank is filtered, anything from 10-50% water changes are fine. If unfiltered, I'd suggest atleast 50%.
Based on the pictures you have shown before, I don't think your betta has popeye. I would just keep the water clean and keep an eye on him. Can you show another picture of his eye "out"? This going in and out also makes me think that its not popeye, but maybe just an abnormality he has.
