Ophthalmology
Veterinary ophthalmology, as in humans, deals with the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of diseases and disorders associated with the sight and eyes of animals. It is a field that has undergone considerable development in recent times. In order for a veterinarian to be able to examine your pet's eyesight properly, he or she needs the appropriate technical equipment in addition to expertise.
We provide a complete ophthalmology service at Medicanima Clinic, from clinical examination to surgery and aftercare. If the situation requires it, we take samples from patients for laboratory testing, which usually takes place directly at our clinic. We are thus able to determine the cause within tens of minutes and then determine the next steps in treatment.
Our specialists deal with a wide range of visual diseases or disorders. Some of the most common ones include eye ulcers, foreign bodies in the eyes, allergic reactions, inflammation of the eyes or eyelids.
Examination of hereditary defects
Veterinary ophthalmology is not just about treating patients with pre-existing eye problems. It also includes a thorough examination and care of healthy individuals that may be destined for breeding or active reproduction. Our ophthalmology services are not limited to the management of eye problems, but also include preventative healthcare and diagnostics that are crucial to ensuring the health and quality of life of your pets.
We want to make your pet's examination as comfortable as possible. That's why we've taken an approach where you're in the same room with him or her for the entire examination. This approach not only helps minimize stress for the animal, but also allows us to better understand their needs and reactions.
