Eye examination for horses – Specialists in diagnosis & therapy
Your horse's eyes are sensitive and crucial for their health and performance. In our specialised practice, we carry out comprehensive eye examinations – often on-site, avoiding stressful trips to the clinic.
🩺 Diagnostics – fast, precise, and gentle
Our examination begins with a clinical assessment, during which we observe behaviour, pupillary light responses and external signs. Building on this, we employ state-of-the-art diagnostic techniques:
- Ophthalmoscope – examination of the retina and optic nerve head
- Slit lamp – examination of the cornea, lens, iris, and fundus
- Fluorescein test – visualising minor corneal injuries
- Tonometer – Measurement of intraocular pressure, e.g. for glaucoma
- Ultrasound – Assessment of vitreous and retina
- Special samples for laboratory – microbiological, mycological or pathological
💊 Treatment options
Depending on the findings of the horse's eye examination, we use specifically:
- Targeted eye ointments
- Eye injections
- Tear duct flushing
All therapies are carried out precisely, under sterile conditions and gently for your horse.
🐴 Common Illnesses
Early examinations help to recognise and treat diseases such as conjunctivitis, corneal defects, immune-mediated keratitis (IMMK), glaucoma or ERU/moon blindness in good time. This helps to maintain your horse's quality of life.
Mobile service – no clinic stress
Thanks to state-of-the-art equipment, many examinations and therapies can be carried out directly on your premises. This saves stress, time, and costs, while we guarantee the highest quality.
