Im not sure what could cause that. Have you checked your water readings? Ammonia, Nitrate, and Nitrite can cause many strange and unhealthy things if they get to high. Check out those levels and keep up on regular water changes. Let us know what happens.

My female guppy also has popeye

But my readings are also in the good range 0 nitrItes and Ammonia

15 nitrAtes. I have been adding half a teaspoon of Epsom salt due to someones recommendations into it and it has decreased a bit. Make sure its 100% natural Epsom salt. Start off slow and go up to 1 teaspoon to 1 and a half teaspoon

Hope I was a bit of assistance.
