2. Cataracts (canine) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cataracts_(canine)

   Canine cataract surgery involves small incisions in the cornea. The process is more intensive than in human cataract surgery, mainly due to the larger lens area in dogs than in humans which requires more power to break up the cataract, the need for general anesthesia, and post-operative care that involves anti-inflammatory medication and eye drops.

3. Asteroid hyalosis - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asteroid_hyalosis

   Asteroid hyalosis is a degenerative condition of the eye involving small white opacities in the vitreous humor. [1] It is known to occur in humans, dogs, cats, horses, and chinchillas. [2] Clinically, these opacities are quite refractile, giving the appearance of stars shining in the night sky—except that ocular asteroids are often quite mobile.

4. Heidelberg Retinal Tomography - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heidelberg_retinal_tomography

   The Heidelberg Retinal Tomography is a diagnostic procedure used in ophthalmology.The Heidelberg Retina Tomograph (HRT) is an ophthalmological confocal point scanning laser ophthalmoscope [1] for examining the cornea and certain areas of the retina using different diagnostic modules (HRT retina, HRT cornea, HRT glaucoma).

5. Blindness in animals - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blindness_in_animals

   Cataracts can be developed through old age, diseases or trauma to the eye. [5] Some animals that are prone to the development of cataracts are dogs, elephants, horses, pandas and seals. Cataracts are less common in cats [6] in comparison to dogs, where it is fairly common. Just like with humans, cataract extraction surgery can be performed on ...

6. Manual small incision cataract surgery - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manual_small_incision...

   Manual small incision cataract surgery (MSICS) is an evolution of extracapsular cataract extraction (ECCE); the lens is removed from the eye through a self-sealing scleral tunnel wound. A well-constructed scleral tunnel is held closed by internal pressure, is watertight, and does not require suturing.

7. Intraoperative floppy iris syndrome - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intraoperative_floppy_iris...

   Intraoperative floppy iris syndrome (IFIS) is a complication that may occur during cataract extraction in certain patients. This syndrome is characterized by a flaccid iris which billows in response to ordinary intraocular fluid currents, a propensity for this floppy iris to prolapse towards the area of cataract extraction during surgery, and progressive intraoperative pupil constriction ...
