‼️“CHERRY EYE” ‼️
🍒👀-- is the common name for a prolapse of the third eyelid gland in dogs.
📌What causes cherry eye?
The third eyelid gland is normally anchored to the lower inner rim of the eye by a fibrous attachment. This attachment is thought to be weak in certain dog breeds, allowing the gland to prolapse easily. The breeds most affected include the Cocker Spaniel, English Bulldog, French Bulldog, Boston Terrier, Beagle, Bloodhound, Lhasa Apso, Shih Tzu, Pug, and other brachycephalic (flat-faced) breeds.
📌 Toby, a seven-month old , male Shih Tzu was brought to the clinic due to bilateral prolapse of his third eyelid gland. Surgical correction was performed by Doc Shynne and Doc Joven Ray Casupang ✨
