Wet Specimen Question

If anyone’s familiar with wet preserving animals, please help me. Just a simple question but I can’t find much information online.. I’m probably not looking hard enough. But is it common for the eyes of animals to turn white when preserved in alcohol? More specifically a mouse. So far just the middle of the eye is white. It’s only been preserved since yesterday. Thanks!

Edit

Thanks again for the help those who responded!!

Hi, After death, it is normal that the aqueous humor in the eye to cloud up. Alcohol and other preservatives can break up retina purple, the pigment portion of the iris. It is kinda unavoidable. I hope this helps some.

Cheers,

Art
