This beautiful litter of golden retrievers came to see us for their breed checks. Dr. Robin was able to assess the condition of their eyes, and all of our team welcomed the puppy cuddles

Meet Ferguson 🐾 he came in to see us because he had entropion in both of his eyes, meaning his eyelids were rolling inwards and causing irritation. We did surgery to roll them out, and he won us all over with his puppy dog eyes

🌼 Happy Thursday, everyone!
Meet Daisy — a sweet 6-month-old Bernese Mountain Dog who came to see Dr. Jonathan Chin in late March due to ongoing eye issues. 👀🐶
After a thorough consultation, Daisy was diagnosed with entropion in both eyelids — a condition where the eyelids roll inward, causing the lashes to rub against the eyeball, which can be very uncomfortable. 😣
Daisy had corrective surgery and is doing amazingly well! 🎉
Today was her 2nd post-op checkup with Dr. Jonathan, and we’re so pleased with her progress. We’ll see this beautiful girl again in 4 weeks!
Keep healing, Daisy — we’re all rooting for you! 💕🐾

🐶 Happy Hump Day, Everyone!
Meet little Hazel — an adorable 5-month-old Bulldog who came in to see Dr. Robin Stanley with a case of cherry eye in her left eye. 👁️💕
Cherry eye occurs when the gland of the third eyelid prolapses and becomes visible, often causing discomfort and irritation. To help Hazel feel her best, we performed a procedure to remove the pr*****ed gland and relieve her discomfort.
We’re happy to report that Hazel is doing great, and this sweet photo was taken at her post-op appointment! 💖
Wishing Hazel and her wonderful family all the best as she continues to heal and grow! 🐾✨

🐾 Good Morning Everyone! ☀️
Meet Tiny McFly—who, despite the name, isn’t so tiny! 💪💕 Tiny is spending the day with us at Animal Eye Care for a few important procedures to help her feel and see better.
👁️ Today she’s having:
Conjunctival Mass Removal & Cryotherapy (Left Eye): We’re removing an abnormal growth on her eye’s conjunctiva (the pink tissue around the eye). To help prevent regrowth, we’re also applying cryotherapy (a freezing treatment) to the area.
Entropion Surgery (Right Eye): This corrects a condition where the eyelid turns inward, causing lashes to rub against the eye—ouch! This procedure will help relieve irritation and protect her eye long-term.
Tiny is currently relaxing before surgery, and we can’t wait to keep you updated on her recovery over the next 10–14 days. 🐶💖
Stay tuned for her post-op glow-up!

🌸 Bella’s Journey: A Story of Strength and Healing 🌸
We want to share the incredible story of our beloved 13-year-old Japanese Spitz, Bella, who has been through quite a journey this past month.
Early in March, Bella came to us because she was having trouble seeing. As a senior dog, it’s not uncommon for vision issues to develop, but we knew we needed to figure out exactly what was going on to help her. After a thorough consultation and diagnostic testing, Bella was diagnosed with a combination of eye conditions that were affecting her sight.
1. Right Eye: Bella had Senile Nuclear Sclerosis, which is a normal part of aging where the lens in the eye starts to harden and cloud over time. This isn’t usually a cause for alarm, but it can cause some vision changes. Along with this, Bella had a small cataract developing on the back of her lens. While it wasn’t too severe at the moment, it was something that needed to be addressed to prevent further vision loss.
2. Left Eye: The situation with Bella’s left eye was more concerning. She had Intumescent Cataracts, meaning the cataract in her left eye was not only clouding her vision but was also swollen, causing more serious issues. This led to Lens-induced Uveitis, which is inflammation inside the eye caused by the lens. To make matters more complicated, Bella also had Keratitis, which is an inflammation of the cornea. Together, these conditions were significantly impacting her vision, and we knew something had to be done to improve her quality of life.
Fast forward to today, and we are thrilled to share that Bella is doing amazing! She’s here for her 2nd post-op check-up, and we couldn’t be more proud of how far she’s come. Bella is bright, alert, and showing so much energy, just like her usual happy self. Her eyes are healing beautifully, and we can already see a difference in her behavior — she’s back to being more playful and interactive! 🐾💖

🐾 Happy FriYay, everyone! 🎉 Meet our new client, the adorable and incredibly smiley Rex! 😄 Rex is a 6-year-old Bull Terrier who’s currently in the loving care of a wonderful foster family, patiently waiting for his forever home. 💕 He was rescued by Victorian Bull Terrier Rescue in November last year, and now he’s part of our clinic family!
Yesterday, Rex came in to see our amazing Dr. Ben for an eye check-up. After a thorough examination, Dr. Ben diagnosed Rex with a condition called Entropion. This is a situation where the eyelids (usually the lower ones) roll inward, causing the eyelashes to rub against the surface of the eye, which can be very uncomfortable and even lead to damage to the cornea. 🐾
To help Rex, Dr. Ben has recommended a procedure called Entropion Bilateral Surgery. We look forward to seeing Rex for his procedure very soon!
Wishing everyone a wonderful weekend ahead! And remember, if you have any concerns or urgent matters regarding your fur babies, please don’t hesitate to contact our on-call ophthalmologist on our after-hours line. We’re always here to help! 🐶👀💕
Take care, and enjoy your weekend, everyone! 🌟

Happy Tuesday Everyone! Meet Morgan! 🐾
Morgan is a sweet 1-year and 7-month-old Bullmastiff who came to us with very sore eyes. After a thorough examination during his first visit in late January, we diagnosed him with Entropion, a condition where the eyelids roll inward, causing discomfort and irritation to the eyes. 😔
To help Morgan, we scheduled him for Entropion Repair surgery on both eyes (right eye more than the left). 🏥💉
We’re thrilled to share that Morgan is doing great after his surgery! His eyes are looking so much better, and he’s already feeling more comfortable. We’re looking forward to seeing him for his second post-op checkup soon! 🐶💙
Big thanks to Morgan’s family for trusting us with his care. We’re so happy to be part of his recovery journey! 👏

✨ Happy Thursday to all of our amazing clients and furry friends! ✨
Meet Louie! 🐾 This sweet pup came in for surgery on Tuesday, and we performed a procedure called Entropion Repair.
Entropion is a condition where the eyelids, usually the lower ones, roll inward, causing the lashes to rub against the eye. This can lead to discomfort, irritation, and potential damage to the cornea if left untreated. 😿
For Louie, we performed a rollout and shortening of both lower eyelids to correct the issue. This surgery helps to reposition the eyelids properly so that they no longer irritate his eyes. 👁️✨
We’re happy to report that Louie is on the road to recovery, and we can’t wait to see him for his post-op checkup soon! 💕🐶
Wishing you a speedy recovery, Louie! We’re here for you every step of the way. 💪

Happy Tuesday, Everyone! 🌟 Meet Twinkle! 🐾 She’s a sweet 6-year-old Boston Terrier who is ready to see the world again! 🌍 Twinkle has cataracts in both eyes, but we’re excited to share that she’ll be coming in tomorrow for laser retinopexy followed by cataract removal surgery. 👁️✨ We can’t wait to see her get back to her playful, happy self! We’ll be sure to keep you all updated on her journey. Stay tuned for more updates on our girl, Twinkle! 💖
