No need to worry about the Breed

p.6

Consider the Breed
- Breed predisposition is very important in veterinary ophthalmology
- Most of the eye problems – apart from trauma are breed related
- Always check the breed predisposition lists in all pure bred dogs and their primary crosses

p.6

p.7

Eye diseases that occur by breed

STT Schirmer Tear Tests are overrated
They take at least 2 minutes of my valuable time!!

p.11
p.12

p.12

STT Schirmer Tear Tests are overrated

p.12
p.13

p.13

STT – Schirmer tear tests are underused
- Many cases referred to us have not had a STT done
- Do a STT is all cases of
– Conjunctival Disease
– Corneal Disease
– And Ocular Discharge
– watery and mucky

p.13
p.14

p.14

Dry eye is commonly overlooked
- Dry eye treatment is more successful when treated early.
- Do a STT with chronic conjunctivitis cases as allergic conjunctivitis can lead to dry eye.

p.14
p.15

p.15

Why do a STT here?

p.15
p.16

p.16

Use NSAIDs in ocular trauma, severe uveitis cases, hyphaema cases

p.16
p.17

p.17

We lose most eyes to uveitis
- Uveitis in ocular trauma cases is usually severe
- Use oral prednisolone in most cases
– Prednisolone
- 1mg/kg BID for 3 to 5 days then
- 1mg/kg SID for 5 to 7 days then
- 1mg/kg EOD then slowly reduce
– Consider subconjunctival depot cortisone injections in severe cases

p.17
p.18

p.18

Use oral cortisone and topical cortisone eg Prednefrin Forte

p.18
p.19

p.19

Amacin
is a good choice in these cases

p.19
p.20

p.20

Amacin
is a good choice in these cases

p.20
p.21

p.21

Amacin
- A useful ointment for acute bacterial conjunctivitis
- Not potent enough for uveitis, ocular trauma cases
- Use potent cortisone drops eg Prednefrin Forte or Maxidex eye drops for uveitis cases

p.21
p.22

p.22

Don’t bother with a PLR It’s too basic

p.22
p.23

p.23

Don’t bother with a PLR

p.23
p.24

p.24

PLRs can be very useful
- Do PLRs on every eye case you see

Use the largest possible suture in cherry eyes and eyelid surgery

p.31
p.32

p.32

Use the largest possible suture in cherry eyes and eyelid surgery

p.32
p.33

p.33

Cherry eye surgery
- Larger, abrasive suture (eg. PDS) will rub on the cornea and cause deep corneal ulcers
- Use 6/0 vicryl – soft, fine, absorbable
- Continuous pattern for closing incision with pocket technique
- Tie knots on the palpebral surface

p.33
p.34

p.34

Eyelid surgery
- Entropion surgery, eyelid tumour removals
- Use soft, fine, absorbable suture – eg. 6/0 Vicryl or 5/0 Maxon
- If corneal ulcer and blepharospasm – consider placing lateral TT suture at same time as entropion correction

p.34
p.35

p.35

Useful suture materials for eye surgery
- 6/0 Vicryl – cherry eyes, eyelid surgery
- 5/0 Maxon – entropion, eyelid tumour removals
- 4/0 nylon – Temporary tarsorrhaphy, third eyelid flaps

p.35
p.36

p.36

Large dogs are really easy to do cherry eye surgery

p.36
p.37

p.37

Large dogs are really hard to do cherry eye surgery

p.37
p.38

p.38

Large dogs are really HARD to do cherry eye surgery
- Commonly have BOTH cherry eye and third eyelid cartilage eversion –WARN OWNERS!
- Saint Bernards, Great Danes, German Shepherds, Newfoundlands
- Need to replace prolapsed third eyelid gland and assess cartilage
- Bend in cartilage must be corrected
- Consider referral in these cases

p.38
p.39

p.39

Topical NSAIDs - use on an ulcer

p.39
p.40

p.40

Topical NSAIDs - use NEVER on an ulcer

p.40
p.41

p.41

Topical NSAIDs - use on an ulcer – NO!
- Significantly delays epithelialization – slows healing
- Risk of stromal melting +/- corneal perforation
- Only use topical anti-inflammatory drops on eyes with an intact epithelium

p.41
p.42

p.42

Indications for topical NSAID drops Voltaren or Acular eye drops
- Lens induced uveitis – cataracts
- Vascular keratitis – reduce vascularization/fibrosis once an ulcer has healed
- Uveitis in cats
- Post-operative inflammation after cataract surgery

p.42
p.43

p.43

Treatment for corneal ulcers
- Prophylactic topical antibiotic
- Oral NSAIDs
- Doxycycline - may help with healing by inhibiting MMPs.
- +/- Additional pain relief eg. gabapentin or oral buprenorphine

p.43
p.44

p.44

- Indolent ulcers = superficial ulcers will require cotton tip debridement +/- anterior stromal procedure e.g. Grid keratotomy or diamond burr debridement to encourage healing
- Third eyelid flap alone will not speed up healing

p.44
p.45

p.45

Once ulcer has epithelialised!
- Use topical NSAID to reduce vascularization/fibrosis

p.45
p.46

p.46

Older dogs - white spots => lipidosis, not a problem!

Older dogs - white spots => lipidosis, not a problem!

p.47
p.48

p.48

Causes of corneal lipid deposits
- Corneal lipid dystrophy
– Inherited – CKCS, shelties, beagles, huskies, rough
collie
– No inflammation (no blood vessels)
– Non-responsive to treatment
– Topical anti-inflammatories will EXACERBATE

p.48
p.49

p.49

Causes of corneal lipid deposits
- Corneal Degeneration
– Secondary to pathologic changes in cornea
• Ocular disease or systemic disease
– Opacities consist of lipid, cholesterol or calcium
• Preceded by keratitis, vascularisation
– Vascularisation is hallmark clinical feature of CD
– Presence of Calcium delays healing

p.49
p.50

p.50

Corneal degeneration
- May be secondary to systemic disease - altered lipid metabolism
– General physical exam!
– +/- diagnostic tests

p.50
p.51

p.51

Age related Lipid + Calcium

p.51
p.52

p.52

Corneal lipidosis/degeneration
- Topical anti-inflammatories may worsen degeneration
– Don’t use topical NSAIDs or corticosteroids
– Decrease vascularization => can’t clear the lipid
– Will attract/bind calcium
- Fragile deposits can crumble – leaving deep corneal defect or corneal perforation => requires CCT graft!

p.52
p.53

p.53
p.54

p.54

Corneal degeneration/lipid keratopathy treatment
- Treat underlying cause
- Low fat diet eg. Hills w/d
- Optimmune or Tacrolimus 0.02% drops BID- TID
- If ulcerated, or calcium preventing healing
– can use diamond burr to remove the gritty
material
