Peanut is a spicy🔥 little patient who will NOT let his mom give him eyedrops! We rigged up this subpalpebral lavage system (SPL) so she can medicate without him noticing 👀... The drops go into the port on his back and get delivered to his eye. So far he's doing great!

Look at Smokey's heroic job of sending blood vessels to get rid of the foreign body! He had plant matter in his cornea that eventually fell out besides one little spec, which was uncomfortable. We got it out and Smokey is doing great!

Hair growing on the eyeball?!?😨Little Louie was born with a dermoid (not uncommon in frenchies). A dermoid is basically hair growing where its NOT supposed to. Louie's was growing out of his conjunctiva, but it can grow right out of the cornea in some cases! He recovered so nicely and is very happy to have less hair to comb.

This is Buddy! He had cataracts in both eyes that were affecting his vision. Fortunately, we were able to surgically remove the cataracts, put in artificial lenses, and now he can see again! Thank you Fairfield Veterinary Hospital for entrusting us with Buddy's ophthalmic needs. We thank you for the referral!

Kitten is a 14.5 year old Dutch Shepherd and the cloudiness in her eyes isn't actually cataracts, it's lenticular sclerosis! This is an age related change that is a hardening of the lens. It similarly occurs in humans around 40-50 years of age who end up needing reading glasses. Kitten has experienced a gradual decrease in vision, but she still lives a full, vibrant life!
