Services
Cataract Surgery
We specialize in phacoemulsification and intraocular lens implantation for cataract removal in pets. Our ophthalmologists treat inherited, age-related, diabetic, and hypermature cataracts using advanced surgical techniques. This service restores vision and prevents secondary complications like glaucoma while maintaining ocular health.
Corneal Ulcer Treatment
Our clinic manages corneal ulcers caused by trauma, chemical burns, or underlying diseases. We employ diagnostic tools like fluorescein staining and provide medical management or surgical interventions like conjunctival grafts. Treatment focuses on preventing corneal perforation and preserving vision through aggressive antibiotic therapy and pain management.
Ocular Trauma Repair
We offer immediate surgical intervention for traumatic eye injuries including corneal lacerations and globe ruptures. Using operating microscopes and specialized 10-0 sutures, our team performs microsurgical repairs. This service addresses emergencies from animal fights or vehicle accidents, often preventing permanent blindness through timely interventions.
Glaucoma Management
Our comprehensive glaucoma service includes intraocular pressure measurement and medical/surgical treatment options. We manage primary and secondary glaucoma cases using tonometry testing and advanced therapies. Treatment aims to control pressure, preserve vision, and improve quality of life through medication or surgical drainage procedures.
Distichia Removal
We perform surgical correction for distichiasis, where abnormal eyelashes irritate the cornea. Utilizing specialized ophthalmic techniques, our team removes problematic lashes through cryotherapy or electroepilation. This service prevents corneal damage and chronic discomfort while maintaining eyelid function in affected pets.
