Here is the eye of an elderly dog with histologically and immunohistolologically confirmed primary histiocytic sarcoma of the cornea. 1st image time of presentation, 2nd and 3rd images 2 weeks later pre- and immediately postoperatively. Recurrence occurred 6 weeks postoperatively, topical chemo/immunotherapy has been instituted. It is hoped this medical management will aid in regression of this rare tumour. CullenWebb recommends that all patients with corneal masses be referred to a board-certified veterinary ophthalmologist. These masses can be mistaken for benign granulation tissue, secondary to a healing corneal ulcer, to the untrained eye. Such a referral permits expert and comprehensive ocular examination, discussion of findings, further diagnostic planning and tailor-made treatment for the patient. To arrange an appointment either request referral or contact us directly at 1-506-204-8433. #cancer #eye #cornea #animaleyedoctor #specialist #veterinary #ophthalmologist #veterinaryophthalmology https://www.instagram.com/p/BydypcdFqHy/?igshid=302mht9fla4

Here is a Chihuahua patient with pharmacologically confirmed partial Horner syndrome of the right eye (ie miosis mild ptosis). This patient presented with a history of having a small than normal right eye. This was an illusion given the ptosis. Horner syndrome results from anywhere along the sympathetic nervous system pathway to the eye. Complete Horner syndrome, in the dog, is characterized by ptosis, enophthalmos, miosis, and protrusion of the third eyelid. Pharmacological testing confirms the diagnosis. CullenWebb recommends that all patients with unexplained changes in pupil size or changes in the appearance to the eye be referred to a board-certified veterinary ophthalmologist. Such an examination will permit an expert evaluation of the condition that will aid in arriving at an accurate diagnosis, and permit a comprehensive discussion regarding further diagnostic workup and prognoses, as was done for this patient. To arrange an appointment either contact us at 1-506-204-8433 or request referral by your family veterinarian. #cullenwebb #hornerssyndrome #hornersyndrome #sympathetic #animaleyedoctor #veterinaryophthalmology #specialist #veteribary #dogsofinstagram #dogs #eye https://www.instagram.com/p/ByjVSFolLxY/?igshid=1h0kkn92upkv1

Here is the eye of a young adult cat with panuveitis and complete bullous retinal detachment of the right eye. The left eye had posterior uveitis. Based upon the history and our clinical examination findings, we are very concerned about this cat having systemic disease such as feline infectious peritonitis or cancer. Recommendations were made regarding systemic disease workup and symptomatic therapy to afford this patient comfort. CullenWebb recommends that all patients with sudden blindness and red-eye be examined by a board-certified veterinary ophthalmologist. Such an examination will permit an accurate ocular diagnosis with a comprehensive and expert discussion regarding further diagnostic workup, treatment and potential prognoses. For referral, either request referral by your family veterinarian or contact us at 1-506-204-8433 #fip #felineinfectiousperitonitis #cancer #specialist #veterinary #ophthalmologist #animaleyedoctor https://www.instagram.com/p/ByWNw5elc-9/?igshid=nk87blodblo1

Here is the eye of a mature dog with a suspected corneal tumour (suspect corneal squamous cell carcinoma). After examination, recommendations for further diagnostic workup were made prior to this patient undergoing surgical excision of the mass at CullenWebb, with histopathology to follow - results will be posted at a later date. CullenWebb recommends that all patients with raised corneal masses be referred to a veterinary ophthalmologist. Such an examination will facilitate an expert examination, a comprehensive discussion of further diagnostic testing and tailor-made treatment planning, and potential diagnoses and prognoses. To arrange an appointment either request referral by your family veterinarian or contact us directly at 1-506-204-8433 #cornea #cullenwebb #animaleyedoctor #cancer #dogsofinstagram #specialist #ophthalmologist #veterinaryophthalmology https://www.instagram.com/p/ByYywEfltZu/?igshid=rmv9r3bbp51o

Here is the left eye of a young adult cat that was referred with concern about a black mass that was noticed in the eye during a dental cleaning. This patient has pigment deposition on the anterior lens capsule (from the posterior iris epithelium) associated with a pinpoint scar within the cornea and inline with an area of focal fibrosis and pigment on the lens capsule and pinpoint anterior cortical and nuclear cataract. These findings point toward a previous penetrating eye injury. The owners were unaware of an injury ever occurring. Nonetheless, the eye appeared comfortable and had no evidence of uveitis. This is an example of the importance of referral of patients with ocular abnormalities that cannot be explained. Re-examination of the patient is scheduled to ensure that the eye remains comfortable and that the cataract is not progressing. #cullenwebb #animaleyedoctor #penetratinginjury #eyeinjury #catsofinstagram #specialist #veterinaryophthalmology https://www.instagram.com/p/BybZmSelRdK/?igshid=7tpn9i6isjv9

Here is a photo of a Great Dane puppy with scrolled cartilage of the third eyelid. The second photo (swipe left) is the third eyelid immediately following surgical correction. Cartilage defects of the third eyelid are relatively common in Great Danes, and other young giant breeds of dog. CullenWebb recommends that all patients with 3rd eyelid cartilage anomalies be referred to a board-certified veterinary ophthalmologist for examination and surgery. To arrange an appointment either request referral by your family veterinarian or contact us directly at 1-506-204-8433 #cullenwebb #animaleyedoctor #greatdane #giantbreed #thirdeyelid #veterinary #specialist #dogsofinstagram #veterinaryophthalmology https://www.instagram.com/p/BydesKvF8YE/?igshid=15y39eki86lr6

Here is the eye of a mature Boston terrier patient, postoperatively, following cataract removal and artificial lens placement at CullenWebb. Cataracts are lens opacities that are either congenital, inherited, or acquired. This patient had inherited cataracts. Cataracts not only cause vision impairment, but also cause inflammation in the eye that is painful. This inflammation can lead to glaucoma, also painful. CullenWebb recommends that all patients with cataracts be evaluated by a board-certified veterinary ophthalmologist. Such an evaluation will permit an expert evaluation of the patient’s eyes, a comprehensive discussion about cataracts and other concurrent abnormalities that might be diagnosed, and provide tailor-made treatment options and associated prognoses.

Posted @withrepost • @dartmouthdougie Not our usual #glamshot, I know. But we have had an incredible amount of messages/well wishes and love come in for Doug over the last week, so now that he’s acting a bit more like himself I thought I’d share a bit on how he’s doing. ⁣ ⁣ I know this isn’t his usual flawless look... they had to shave his eyes for the surgery. (Also, I trimmed his ears because his beautiful ear floof was getting in his eyes...in looking at this photo, I see how terrible a hair stylist I’d make!) Now that the swelling has gone down, I think the eye patches make him look like a clown 🤡 (a pretty cute one now...2 days ago it was pretty terrifying looking).⁣ ⁣ He has his normal veryyyyyy healthy appetite back and is even putting effort into picking up his toys, despite the cone! ⁣ ⁣ Extra snuggles for this champ over the next 2 weeks of the cone of shame... and many funny photos to come as he regrows his fur 😂 - Finally, huge thanks to Dr. Cullen and Dr. Webb for taking such amazing care of our boy!! 👀 #grateful https://www.instagram.com/p/BxzrxWqlXvf/?igshid=ubflqjzdesn9

Here is a photo of an eye from a canine patient with age-related iris atrophy (aka senile iris atrophy). This condition is benign and is characterized by a loss of iris tissue and may manifest as a scalloping of the pupillary margin and/or a moth eaten appearance to the body of the iris. Affected animals can be light sensitive and may have dilated pupil(s) in normal ambient lighting conditions. #cullenwebb #animaleyedoctor #animaleyes #dog #dogsofinstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/BuzQNfMBYQx/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=12t9spml25d8f
