Common Problems in Dogs Eyes

Cataracts

Cataract in Dogs is usually hereditary in nature but can also be caused because of injury. A diabetic dog is more prone to cataracts. Cataracts can be static or they might increase with time. If a cataract covers less than 30 % of the lens then it might not cause any harm but once it spread to more than 60 %of the lens then the dog becomes visually impaired. Cataract usually progresses because of many factors like the breed of dog, type of cataract, age or presence of diseases like diabetes.

Breeds which are prone to hereditary cataracts are Labrador retriever, Cocker Spaniel, Poodle, Welsh springer spaniel, Boston terrier etc.

Treatment

If a cataract is suspected in the dog then it must be taken to a Veterinarian for Eye examination and understanding of the level of vision impairment. Cataracts can be removed by a surgical procedure called Phacoemulsification which is similar to what is performed in humans. In this process, the cloudy part is removed from the eye. This process is usually performed when the dog finds difficulty in vision.

Dry Eye

Also known as Keratoconjunctivitis sicca (KCS), in this condition, the tear gland is inflamed and is unable to produce the normal amount of tears thus making the eyes dry. Because of fewer or no tear the eyes are not lubricated and becomes unhealthy. Dry eye can be caused because of many reasons but mainly it is associated with disorders of the immune system. In certain breeds, this condition can be very painful and if left unattended then it can worsen. In order to diagnose these conditions early stages, a regular eye examination is important.

Symptoms:

 Discharge around eye

 Rubbing or pawing at the eye and face

 Frequent eye infections

 Blinking of eye

 Red eye

Breeds at Risk:

Cocker Spaniel, Shih Tzu, Pug, English bulldog, Yorkshire terrier etc.

Treatment

If any of the symptoms are suspected then please contact a local veterinarian for a confirmatory diagnosis. Once diagnosed the veterinarian usually recommends a good eye drop to keep the eyes moist and lubricated. The vet might recommend antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs in case of any infection.

Apart from medication owner should also clean the eyes regularly with cotton swabs or soft and clean wipes. 

Glaucoma

Glaucoma in dogs is caused because of insufficient drainage of fluid from the eye. Because of this pressure is build up inside the eye that leading to damage to the optic nerve and retina. Glaucoma is usually inherited called primary glaucoma or it may be caused because of other eye conditions like cataracts or renal detachments.

Grooming Tips for Dog Ear - Boops and Bleps

Ear cleaning


Ear cleaning is one of the most important parts of dog grooming. Regular ear examination is necessary for dogs as it helps in the identification of any kind of injury or infection in the early stages. The regular examination helps one access the cleanliness of a dog’s ear canal and the need for cleaning the ear. Some breeds are more prone to ear infection and thus require special attention for ear checking.  While examination any kind of discharge or odour might suggest the presence of infection in the ear.  If there is any kind of inflammation, redness, swelling or pain then consult a local veterinarian before initiating the cleaning process. 

As you all know the ear canal ends with an eardrum and have a complex structure which makes it difficult to expel any stuck object without any assistance. Any foreign object in the dog’s ear can be an irritant and a source of future infection. 
For ear cleaning one can use a good quality ear cleaner.  If the ear is having any inflammation or injury then do not use a cleanser containing Hydrogen peroxide and alcohol as it may cause irritation in the ear canal.  If a veterinarian finds any kind of ear infection then he can recommend a cleanser having anti-fungal or anti-bacterial properties.

Apart from a good quality cleanser, you may need cotton swabs, a gauge and some treats for cleaning the ear. Do not use Cotton bud or cotton tip for cleaning as it may cause damage to the earbud.  It may further push the debris into the ear canal. 

Step-by-Step Guide for Ear Cleaning

1. Make your dog sit in front of you with your rear leg placed between your legs. For large breeds make your dog stand sidewise near the wall and rear end in the corner of the room and stand on one of the sides. 
2. Hold the ear flap vertically so that the ear canal can be observed. Use another hand to hold the ear cleaning solution.
3. Apply some ear cleaning solution to the dog's ear. Do not put the tip of the bottle in the ear. After applying the cleaning solution clean the tip using cotton swabs to prevent the spread of harmful bacteria or fungus. 
4. Keeping the ear flap vertically, gently massage the base of the ear for 30-40 seconds. This will help spread of cleaning solution in the ear and break the debris. 
5. Use a cotton ball and gauze to wipe away debris from the inner part of the ear flap. Allow the dog to shake his head which will allow the remaining ear solution and debris to move out of the canal to the outer opening of the ear. Use a cotton ball to remove the debris from the outer canal. 
6. Provide a treat to the dog and wait for minutes before repeating the same process with another ear. 
7. If any pain, swelling or injury is observed then stop the process and consult your veterinarian immediately.

EYE CARE: -

The eye is one of the sense organs of any living being and just like humans Pets also possess a risk of infection or irritation in the eyes because of multiple factors. So, in order to keep your dog cent per cent, fit and healthy, eye examination becomes one of the most essential routine exercises for owners and has to be performed from time to time in order to keep their eyes healthy and free from infection. Ignorance of this might lead to serious eye illness which can be threatening to them.

Eye Health: The Warning Signs:-

It's very important to regularly examine the eyes and look for the warning signs for any future implications. If the signs are identified earlier, it can be treated better. Dogs can have a varied range of eye problems just like in humans like Dry eyes, cataracts, conjunctivitis, cherry eye, glaucoma etc. 

There are many warning signs that can indicate that something is wrong with the dog’s eyes. It is not necessarily the final diagnosis but these signs can tell a lot about eye health. If the owner finds any of these warning signs then they should contact a veterinarian for a confirmatory diagnosis.  The most common warning signs are as follows:

Tearing

Redness

Frequent Blinking or squinting

Any kind of discharge from the eye (usually Yellow or Green) 

Cloudiness (It may be quite common in old dogs)

Sensitivity to light

Swelling near the eyes

Decreased vision- can be indicated by poor balance or confusion

Rubbing or pawing of the face around the eyes

Tips for Eye Care:-

Trim any kind of hair growth near or over the eye. Cut the hair parallel to the eyelid and always use blunt-nosed scissors. This is really important because of skin folds near the eyes in certain breeds like Lhasa apso, Pekingese etc.  Note: Do not point the scissors towards the dog as it may be the cause of any injury. 

Clean the area around the eyes on a daily basis with the help of cotton wipes or using eye wipes. Cleaning the eyes on a regular basis keeps it away from mucus. While cleaning with the eye keep the wipe or tip of eyewash away from the cornea to prevent any kind of injury. 

While giving a bath to the dog always remember to rinse the shampoo as soon as it is applied as it may cause irritation and redness to the eyes. The tearless shampoo also can act as an irritant for dog eyes. 

Some breeds tend to develop tear stains with time. Timely cleaning of tear stains is very important. It should be done once a week with cotton using eyewash or using eye wipes. 

If the dog is going on a car ride make sure his head is inside the car while cruising as it might be the cause of injury due to some foreign particle. Observe the eye after every outdoor tour for any dirt or foreign particle and also for any of the above-mentioned warning signs. 

If your dog is old then there are chances that the eye becomes cloudy due to age. It's normal but a routine veterinary examination can rule out any serious condition. 

Even though proper care is taken, a routine veterinary examination is important to diagnose any kind of serious illness. It can be done during regular grooming visits.
