Bristlenose pleco eye growth

Any idea what this weird eye growth is? Behavior is normal eating and cruising the tank as usual. This one pleco has had this growth for a few weeks now. None of my other super reds have this. Water parameters are stable nitrates around 20 ppm, ph mid 7s. Gh 200 ppm, kh 80 ppm. Temp 79F. I’m debating trying to manually remove it and see what happens, any thoughts? Thanks!

It's difficult to tell I wouldn't manual remove it with it so close to the eye you could Qarantine and treat with maracyn2 active ingredient is minocycline that has proven effective at shrinking some types of lumps
