Ophthalmology focuses on diseases and problems of the eye. While an ocular (eye) exam is part of any routine exam or wellness visit, sometimes a more focused ocular exam and specific diagnostics are indicated. Pet ocular diseases that you may be familiar with include cataracts, glaucoma, retinal detachments, eyelid growths, and corneal ulcers. Many of these ocular conditions can be diagnosed and treated by your VCA veterinarian. When outside our scope, we collaborate with local board-certified veterinary ophthalmologists to help your pet receive the care they need.
