Cool case! Meet Brinkley, a young Golden Retriever who presented to us for a pretty bad case of entropion. Entropion is an inward rolling of the eyelid. This can cause hair to rub the eye, leading to irritation and tearing. Notice in the first video how his right eye constantly "cries," and he holds in shut most of the time. The second video shows how it looked under anesthesia, and then I roll it outward into the correct position. Picture 3 is immediately post-op, and the last picture is at the time of suture removal. So much more comfortable!! These are very rewarding surgeries and one of my favorites. -Dr. Thomas

From the sound of trains to the smell of barbecue in the air, Slaton is a place that proudly wears its history. But have you ever wondered how it got its name? Let’s take a look back!
