Happy 1st Birthday Winston! Winston had Cryotherapy to fix a problem called Distichiasis. This causes in-grown eyelashes. Cryotherapy involves freezing the eyelids directly over the hair follicles to destroy them permanently, stopping them from growing back.

Usually dogs require only one procedure to address the issue but young pups with rapidly developing hair follicles can sometimes require two treatments.

Winston is fully recovered after his second treatment and for the first time in his life, has open comfortable eyes. Hooray for Winston!

Gold stars for Luna!!

Gold stars for Luna!!

Luna suffers with chronic allergies and asthma so is a regular at her vet. 4 months ago I presented at her vet practice with a suspected eye infection but it was discovered she had an ulcer on both eyes. My vets put her on medication straight away and her right eye healed within a week however the ulcer in her left eye was stubborn and became stagnant with no progress over a period of 7 weeks. During those 7 weeks my vet was liasing back and forward with Julia who was giving treatment recommendations but when nothing worked it was agreed Julia needed to see Luna in person.

We received an appointment super fast after the initial referral was made and Julia jumped straight into action from the minute she met Luna. She put a robust treatment plan in place and it was agreed we would return in 3 weeks for surgery to remove the ulcer from the surface of her eye. After the 3 weeks had passed I attended the appointment with Luna and her packed lunch in hand prepared to drop her off for her operation however after Julia examined the eye her vast knowledge and expertise became apparent as her treatment plan had worked!!! After 7 weeks of no progress Luna’s eye had began to heal all on its own and the surgery was cancelled. We continued with all the meds Julia put in place and today she officially had her last appointment where it was discovered the ulcer was completely gone and her face was healing beautifully. I think the pictures really do speak for themselves.

I cannot thank Julia enough for everything she has done for myself and Luna, Luna has been miserable for months and my cheeky little girls personality was fading away by the day but now today I have my sassy full of life happy little girl back and that’s all thanks to Julia!! Whenever I had concerns or worries she was always on the end of an email with advice on my next steps until I seen her again.

I cannot recommend eye right referrals enough, Julia’s knowledge and expert opinion is priceless. She gave my beautiful little girl her sparkle back and I am forever in her debt.

Thankyou so much from myself and Luna x

Ouch! It's always Spaniels getting tiny thorns in their eyes. Thankfully we can remove these easily with little instruments and needles and can often remove them conscious in well behaved dogs!

Sometimes they are a little deeper, like this one, and require sedation to remove, but all dogs make a speedy recovery once the offending thorn is removed!

It's a spa treatment for your doggo that helps their eyes! Heat masks are used to help unblock glands along the eyelid margin. And some dogs really love it like this gorgeous girl we saw today 😍

Contact us for info if your dog suffers from swollen or lumpy eyelids.
