My 11 year old lovebird is losing feathers around one eye/itching it.

I just noticed over the course of the last 5 days his feathers around ONE eye have gone missing and he occasionally itches his eye.

He is not acting sick at all he is still flying around being a cute birdy but I am worries about this :(
He has never had feathers around his eye missing before.

I’m not sure whats going on here CE0D8689-73AE-48E4-9BA6-38C2DA7DF19A.jpeg

Do you just have this one bird? If you've got an avian vet, I'd be making an appointment. Feather loss like that isn't normal.
