🧐 What is the ACVD? 🧐
The American College of Veterinary Dermatology (ACVD) is a group of individuals who are each a Board Certified Veterinary Dermatologist®. These veterinarians have expertise and specialized training in the diagnosis and treatment of animals with benign and malignant disorders of the skin, hair, ears and nails. The ACVD is the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA)-recognized veterinary specialty organization™ for certification of veterinary dermatology.
The ACVD undergoes a comprehensive evaluation by the American Board of Veterinary Specialties (ABVS) , a committee of the AVMA, every 3 years to ensure the required standards are maintained for the ACVD certification process.

Ivy was diagnosed with juvenile cataracts and Dr. Lackner performed bilateral phacoemulsification which is a surgical procedure used to correct cataracts by breaking down the built up protein of the eye lens that causes cataracts.
What you’re seeing is Ivy’s first visual walk immediately following the surgery! She’s got so many things to check out and see. 😍
