Yes definitely it is wet fowl pox, just hoping that not entire flock is affected coz unlike dry pox that healing is faster faster, wet pox is very fastidious and most birds die of starvation once the eyes get closed. The only sure way of control such is all in all out approach to poultry farming and timely vaccinations. For now all you have to do is supportive care to minimize chances of opportunistic infection. Kindly squeeze out the white substance beneath the eye lids and apply centrino cream on the dry scabs. Clean the areas with iodine too
