Is your pet dealing with eye discomfort?

While it is always a good idea to contact us immediately when your pet appears to be suffering from sickness or injury, it is especially important when a pet’s eyes are involved. Many eye problems turn out to be minor; however, even short delays in seeking veterinary help for a pet’s eye problems can result in blindness or loss of the eye.

Intraocular pressure is measured with a tonometer as part of a comprehensive eye examination.

Measured values of intraocular pressure, also called IOP, are influenced by corneal thickness and rigidity.

We assess your pet’s eyes during each physical examination, so having an exam done regularly is important, it allows us to stay on top of any health concerns and address them as soon as we can see things changing.
