Objective: To evaluate the long-term outcome and efficacy of intravitreal injection of gentamicin and dexamethasone sodium phosphate (IVGD) or triamcinolone in end-stage glaucoma patients and determine pre-procedure prognostic indicators of success and post-operative complications.
Procedure: Medical records were reviewed for 108 dogs (108 eyes) treated with intravitreal gentamicin with or without dexamethasone sodium phosphate or triamcinolone for glaucoma between 2013 and 2018 with 3 months of minimum follow-up. Signalment and clinical findings, including type of glaucoma, pre-procedure intraocular pressure (IOP), chronicity, procedure protocol, and outcome were recorded.
Objective: To describe the clinical presentation and outcome of canine patients that present with lipid-laden aqueous humor (LLA) and to evaluate its association with other ocular and systemic disorders.
Methods: Medical records were identified and reviewed of 30 dogs presenting with clinical signs of LLA between 2013 and 2017 and compared to the canine referral population during the same time period. The percentage of dogs affected by LLA and potential risk factors were compared between groups.
