Ophthalmology
At Terrey Hills Animal Hospital, we provide comprehensive ophthalmology services to ensure your pets maintain healthy vision and eye comfort. Eye problems in dogs, cats, and other animals can be subtle but may have a significant impact on their wellbeing. Early detection and treatment are essential for preventing long-term complications.
Why Veterinary Eye Care Matters
Pets can’t always communicate when they have eye discomfort. Conditions such as cataracts, glaucoma, corneal ulcers, infections, or eyelid disorders can develop quickly and may lead to permanent vision loss if left untreated. Our expert veterinarians use advanced diagnostic tools to identify issues early, ensuring timely and effective treatment.
Our Ophthalmology Services Include
- Comprehensive eye examinations to detect and monitor eye conditions
- Diagnosis and treatment of infections, injuries, and inflammations
- Glaucoma and cataract management for long-term vision preservation
- Corneal ulcer treatment to prevent pain and complications
- Eyelid and tear duct evaluations to address chronic irritation
- Referral to specialist ophthalmologists for advanced cases
Advanced Diagnostics & Care
Our clinic uses specialised ophthalmic equipment, including slit-lamp biomicroscopy, tonometry, and fluorescein staining, to provide accurate diagnosis and monitor treatment progress. We collaborate with veterinary specialists when advanced procedures or surgeries are required, ensuring your pet receives the highest standard of care.
