WE SPECIALIZE IN

Veterinary Ophthalmology

services in New York City. Our board-certified and associate doctors prioritize

pets, and our referring veterinarians in the NYC area.

VETERINARY OPHTHALMOLOGY SERVICES


VETERINARY OPHTHALMOLOGY



When a disorder of the eye fails to respond to general treatment or if advanced
equipment is required, our specialized eye care teams are here to help.

LEARN MORE ABOUT VETERINARY OPHTHALMOLOGY


OCULAR EXAMINATION 



A thorough examination of the pet’s eyes and surrounding tissues. This includes
tear film assessment, tonometry/glaucoma testing, gonioscopy, pachymetry, and
neuro–ophthalmic evaluation. 


GENETIC EYE DISEASE SCREENING 



Eye Care for Animals participates in monthly OFA/ECR (Orthopedic Foundation for
Animals/Eye Certification Registry) hospitals nationwide to promote the
prevention (and/or) reduction of heritable eye disease and ensure the continued
health of purebred dogs. 


CATARACT REMOVAL SURGERY AND LENS REPLACEMENT SURGERY 



If detected early, surgical removal of the lens can be beneficial, but there is
a risk of potential side effects after surgery such as: 

 * Inflammation 

 * Requiring lifelong topical medication 

 * Farsightedness 

Other surgical procedures can be performed at the time of lens removal to reduce
the chance of common post–surgery complications occurring. 

If the retina is not severely damaged after the lens is removed, pets will be
able to see, but may be farsighted. If the eye is already suffering from severe
inflammation or glaucoma, eye removal or a procedure to place a prosthetic eye
may be recommended. 


CORNEAL GRAFTING/REPAIR AND TREATMENT 



Deep or melting ulcers require aggressive medical treatment and often will need
surgical intervention to salvage the eye. We use various surgical techniques to
treat deep corneal ulcers. The surgical techniques we perform most commonly
include tissue grafting such as conjunctival pedicle grafts, corneoconjunctival
transpositions or the application of cyanoacrylate surgical grade tissue
adhesive or glue. 


BLEPHAROPLASTY 



Blepharoplasty is the surgical correction of the eyelids. If diseases of the
eyelid such as entropion, ectropion, and eyelid masses are left untreated–it can
lead to corneal ulcers, eye infections, corneal scarring, corneal
vascularization, and corneal mineralization. 

For larger defects, surgical reconstruction of the upper eyelid may be indicated
for eye health and comfort of your pet. There are several options for surgical
methods which can be discussed during your visit.  Most surgical methods are
geared at relocating a normal piece of tissue from nearby structures and
grafting a new eyelid into the defect. The goal of this surgery is to recreate a
new eyelid and restore normal function thus providing long–term comfort for
pets. 


LASER EYE SURGERY 



Cyclophotocoagulation – This is a procedure that uses a laser to eliminate a
portion of the cells in the ciliary body to reduce the rate of fluid production.
Over time, the fluid–producing cells may regenerate leading to the recurrence of
high pressure. This recurrence of high pressure may necessitate a repeat
procedure. 


MANAGEMENT OF GLAUCOMA 



Drugs used to manage glaucoma can include pilocarpine, demecarium bromide, and
latanoprost. Other medications include carbonic anhydrase inhibitors (such as
dorzolamide) and beta blockers (such as timolol). A pet’s initial response to
medication may be short lived. In most instances, it is difficult to control eye
pressure with medications alone and a variety of surgical techniques have been
developed to help control the condition.  

Surgeries for glaucoma can be divided into vision–saving surgeries and surgeries
for comfort. Vision–saving surgeries are an option for patients with acute
glaucoma that still have vision or in which there is a clinical prognosis for
potential for regaining vision. However, once there is severe damage to the
optic nerve and retina, surgeries for comfort can be explored. 


MANAGEMENT OF TEAR FILM AND TEAR DUCT DISORDERS 



Cyclosporine and tacrolimus are immunomodulatory medications that form the
mainstay of therapy for dry eye. This class of drugs limits the immune–mediated
attack on a patient's lacrimal glands, and stimulates production of the aqueous
component of the tear film. 

Typically, cyclosporine or tacrolimus will be required for the duration of the
life of your pet. Complications are uncommon.  

Pets may also be prescribed a topical anti–inflammatory agent. Corticosteroids,
such as Neomycin / Polymyxin b / Dexamethasone, reduce inflammation and scarring
of the corneal and conjunctival surfaces. 

Artificial tear preparations are often used to provide lubrication to the
cornea. 

Specific therapies exist for the less common forms of keratoconjunctivitis sicca
(KCS). Please speak with your veterinary ophthalmologist for further information
if pets have been diagnosed with one of these variants of KCS. 


MANAGEMENT OF VARIOUS OCULAR DISEASE PROCESSES 



Our team has the knowledge and equipment needed to manage hypersensitive
retinopathy (common in elderly cats), pannus (or chronic superficial keratitis),
uveodermatologic syndrome (occurs most commonly in Akita, Samoyed, and Siberian
Husky dogs, but can occur in any breed), and other ocular abnormalities.
