Hylauronic acid for anyone

[cassiesmith22]

Does anyone have any experience with using hylauronic acid to correct entropion? I heard it's just as effective as eye tacking (our puppy isn't old enough for the proper surgery just yet) but the people I've spoken to about it were from the US so I'm trying to find someone who does corrections with hylauronic acid. I'm struggling though, as Google only gives me articles and not vets who do it.

It's just the more up to date version of using procaine/depot penicillin which is thick and slow to be absorbed to correct entropion. I use penicillin in foals over tacking in about 75% cases - sourcing the dermal filler (HA) may be an issue for your vet

Thank you, I'll also look those up! We have an appointment with our vet on Monday so I'll ask him whether he can source any of these.
