Firstly sorry for posting another depressing negative post, such is my life at the moment.
Jist got back from the vets with an 8 year old tb who is bred to event. He had some problems with his roght eye, and my vet though uvitis but referred to Veterinary Vision of Penrith (excellent place btw if you need help with any animal with eye trouble). Luckily my local vet was convinced and decided to refer.
After a long work up scans revealed a "significant tumour" in the right eye. The current plan is to take the horse back in 4 weeks and check the tumour again. If there is no improvement to the inflmmation of the eye despite the drugs given, or if the tumour has grown in any way the eye is going to be removed. Fingers crossed that the tumour isnt too agressive and remains contained in the eye... otherwise....
I have never dealt with a one eyed horse before, has anyone else and did it make any difference?
Any success stories about eye tumoirs? Apprantly its very rare, especially in such a young horse which is concerning.
Thank you... need chocoalte to get me through this week!!!
