This little dachshund pup presented with diffuse corneal melting (keratomalacia) in her right eye. The entire corneal surface was affected and required both corneal-collagen cross linking and placement of a 360 degree conjunctival hood graft to stabilise it. The graft was healthy and well integrated as shown in the second image taken 2 weeks post-operatively. The last image shows the final result 4 months later, following removal of the graft and treatment with eye drops to minimise corneal vascularisation and scarring. She looks very happy with the result and so are we! 👀🙌🏼

Lovely Elton has been on quite the journey with us here at Animal Eye Care, and this post highlights how far he has come and what an improvement has been made! He initially presented with a very extensive corneal sequestrum in his left cornea. These develop due to chronic corneal irritation and represent areas of devitalised corneal tissue. They are commonly seen in Persian cats like Elton and require surgical removal as the gold standard treatment. Elton’s sequestrum extended down through the entire cornea and required surgical grafting to stabilise the defect once removed. As there was not enough normal cornea to harvest an artificial graft was placed which was made from bovine pericardium. Cats are brilliant healers and Elton now has a comfortable eye that he can see out of! 🙌🏼👀

At initial presentation this eye was completely dry with Schirmer tear readings of 0 mm/60 seconds. Almost complete pigmentation of the cornea was evident along with the typical adherent mucopurulent discharge often seen with keratoconjunctivitis sicca. The second photo shows the same eye 7 months later following application of 0.02% tacrolimus drops used every 6 hours according to the prescribing cascade 🙌🏼👀

This sweet boy is Ralph 🐶 He presented with a large mass in his upper left eyelid that was obstructing his vision and had caused deep ulceration in the underlying cornea. As you can see he is much happier after having the mass surgically removed and the corneal ulcer has fully healed. The mass was sent to the external laboratories and was diagnosed as a squamous cell carcinoma 👀

Meet Elsa, a cocker spaniel who presented with pseudoptosis (droopy upper eyelids) due to redundant skin on her forehead. This was affecting her vision and causing corneal ulceration, so she underwent surgery in the form of a coronal rhytidectomy. This involved removing a horizontal band of skin from the top of the head in between her ears. Once the wound was closed the upper eyelids were suspended in a more normal position, allowing for unobstructed vision and for us to see Elsa’s big, beautiful eyes again! 👏🏼👀

This is the lovely Enzo who presented with third eyelid gland prolapse in his left eye and bilateral upper eyelid ptosis with secondary corneal abrasions. It is important to always assess entropion following application of topical local anaesthesia and to view the patient from below. This allows assessment of the eyelid conformation when the head is lowered as this is most likely how it is carried the majority of the time. In this case Enzo had heavy brow folds thus underwent surgery to resect these along with pocketing of the pr*****ed gland. Non-absorbable sutures were used to minimise tissue reaction and subsequent scarring as he was sweet enough to allow us to remove them consciously. We’re delighted with the results and he’s a happy pup again! 👀

🐈 This is the lovely Garth, a rescue cat who has been under our care for the past few months. He had extensive scarring on the right side of his face from a previous abscess, which resulted in contraction of the right upper eyelid and marked exposure of the conjunctiva and cornea. He was treated surgically in two stages first using an upper eyelid ‘V-to-Y’ blepharoplasty followed by a modified Roberts-Bistner procedure. He has been an absolute star throughout his treatment and we are thrilled with his final result! 🐈

💕 Honey the beagle pup was very brave during her visit today after picking up a corneal foreign body whilst out on her very first walk. Thankfully it was only embedded on the surface of the cornea and was removed using hydrostatic force following application of topical local anaesthetic 🙌🏼
