Ophthalmology

 

Injury or disease to the eye can be painful and has the potential to affect vision long term.

Horses are particularly vulnerable to ocular trauma because their eyes are so large and positioned at the sides of their head. Westhills offers diagnostics and treatments for a variety of ophthalmic conditions including:

  • Corneal ulcers

  • Conjunctivitis

  • Uveitis

  • Eyelid lacerations

  • Entropion

  • Sub palpebral lavage placement

If necessary, we also offer referral to a board certified veterinary ophthalmologist in Calgary, Alberta.
