A Review of Clinical Outcomes, Owner Understanding and Satisfaction following Medial Canthoplasty in Brachycephalic Dogs in a UK Referral Setting (2016-2021).

Brachycephalic breeds have increased in popularity despite growing awareness of their predisposition to a wide range of conformation-related diseases. The extreme facial conformation of many popular brachycephalic breeds compromises their ocular surface health, increasing the risk of painful corneal ulceration. Medial canthoplasty (MC) is a surgical procedure to address ocular abnormalities in brachycephalic dogs, which are collectively referred to as brachycephalic ocular syndrome (BOS).

Prevalence and outcome of lens capsule disruption in routine canine cataract surgery: A retrospective study of 520 eyes (2012-2019).

Objective: To investigate the prevalence and surgical outcome of lens capsule disruption (LCD) in dogs undergoing cataract removal.

Animals Studied: Medical records of 924 eyes undergoing phacoemulsification were analyzed retrospectively.

Procedures: Routine cataract surgeries with or without LCD were included.
