Every dog has a pair of bright and energetic big eyes. The eyes are one of the indispensable facial features of the dog, but the eyes are the part that is prone to illness. The normal eyeball of a dog is embedded in the eye socket, and the dog can be allowed to open and close his eyes. However, in special circumstances, the dog's eyes will be damaged, causing the dog's eyeball to prolapse frequently. So what is the cause of eye prolapse in dogs? How to treat it?
1. The cause of eye prolapse in dogs
The cause of eye prolapse in dogs
The cause of this disease is genetic. Some dogs with relatively shallow eye sockets (such as Beijing Dogs and Xi Shi) often cause eye prolapse due to excessive excitement. In addition, head trauma, dog bites and bones around the eye sockets can also cause eyeball prolapse.
2. Treatment for dog eyes prolapse. The eyeball is an organ that needs moisture to moisten at any time. If this phenomenon occurs, in addition to sending the hospital immediately, if it cannot be sent to the hospital immediately, you should grasp the following principles
1. Enough moisturizing and cleaning: Use clean water (boiled water, mineral water), or physiological saline water (contact lens rinsing liquid) to moisten the eyeballs first, and keep the eyeballs moist at any time.
2. Strictly prohibit dogs from scratching their eyes: Because when the eyeball is prolapsed, the dog itself will feel quite uncomfortable. The reflex action is to use its feet to fiddle with the prolapsed eyes, causing secondary damage.
3. It is strictly forbidden to apply pressure to the eyeball. When the eyeball prolapses, corneal ulcers or perforations will often be accompanied by. If pressure is applied, it will often cause liquid in the eyeball to leak and cause irreversible damage to the eyeball.
3. Treatment risk for dog eyesight prolapse
Under certain conditions, vision can be severely affected.
1. If the prolapse time is too long, for more than 2 hours, you will often lose your eyesight due to blockage of blood circulation in the eye.
2. Secondary damage, causing eyeball rupture and anterior chamber fluid to flow out.
3. Crystal and retinal structure abnormal.
4. When the pupil reflex disappears, it is caused by severe nerve damage.
