Rounds on the Road | The Swollen Eye 🐴👁️
Eyeball Case 1
You walk out to the barn and your horse has one eye swollen nearly shut. Now what?
Eye injuries in horses can range from minor irritation to painful corneal ulcers, and sometimes it’s hard to tell what’s going on just by looking at them.
Today we’re taking a closer look at a corneal ulcer and what it takes to get this eye feeling better.
Horse owner reminder: Squinting, tearing, swelling, cloudiness, or keeping an eye closed are all reasons to call your veterinarian. Eye problems can progress quickly, so don’t wait and see!
Another day, another case out on the road.
