Katy is currently completing an ophthalmology course and would be happy to check your dog’s eyes for glaucoma.

Glaucoma is a serious group of diseases that increases pressure within the eyeball. If you can imagine the eye is like a football filled with water and then the pressure inside the ball starts to increase, you can see why is it such a painful and damaging condition. The eye contains delicate structures like the retina and the lens and if pressure around these increases it can cause blindness.
