🌹Buddy's Thorn👁

We recently had the sweet border collie Buddy in for surgical removal of a foreign body in his eye. This tiny thorn managed to go completely inside his eye, miraculously avoiding any permanent damage, but requiring a surgery under operating microscope to remove it. Buddy is now recovering well and we think he is a very lucky dog!

🐶Tashi the survivor💪

Tashi, a lovely 3 year old Beagle, recently underwent an eyelid reconstruction surgery with us to repair an older injury that had healed poorly and was causing her discomfort.

Tashi was found earlier this year in a bad situation, neglected and critically injured. Due to the severity of her injuries, she lost one of her ears and had both hind legs amputated. Her hard start to life hasn't kept her spirit down though, and through the incredible work of she has found a loving forever home, where she can zoom around on her wheels. Despite having only 2 legs now, she has an incredible quality of life and we are so happy to see her thriving with a bright future ahead.

🎥 Tahlequah 🐎

Dr Robin recently treated the beautiful movie-star horse Tahlequah for a deep corneal ulcer. Luckily, we were able to heal the eye with medical management and avoid surgery; getting Tahlequah back to photoshoot ready and maintaining vision with minimal scarring.

Not only is he a star patient, but also an ambassador for 🌟

😎 Fashion and eyecare! 😎

This is the lovely Fleur, and her sunglasses are not only super stylish, but also serve a purpose!

Fleur has iris atrophy, an age related degeneration of the iris, which can cause sensitivity to bright light.
👁Our iris is what constricts to form our pupil, adapting to the brightness of our environment to let more or less light in. Wearing sunglasses or special dog goggles can help our patients who are sensitive to bright light have more fun outside and live a happy normal life!🌿

🎉 Happy Birthday Blue! 🥳

This week we celebrated the birthday of our unofficial mascot, Blue, who turned 13. Many of you may recognise him from the waiting room where he can be found loafing or greeting patients. Make sure to say hi to Blue when you're next in for your appointment! 👋

🐶 Meet Squishy! 🐶

Squishy is a lovely 7 month old pug that we have all had the pleasure of cuddling everytime she visits. She underwent surgery to correct her puppy entropion and has been a star patient. Entropion is a condition where the eyelids roll inward, causing the hairs to rub on the surface of the eye, which can lead to discomfort and corneal ulcerations. Through surgery, our team corrected the shape and position of Squishy's eyelids and now she is living a happy life with healthy eyes.

This beautiful litter of golden retrievers came to see us for their breed checks. Dr. Robin was able to assess the condition of their eyes, and all of our team welcomed the puppy cuddles

Meet Ferguson 🐾 he came in to see us because he had entropion in both of his eyes, meaning his eyelids were rolling inwards and causing irritation. We did surgery to roll them out, and he won us all over with his puppy dog eyes

🌼 Happy Thursday, everyone!
Meet Daisy — a sweet 6-month-old Bernese Mountain Dog who came to see Dr. Jonathan Chin in late March due to ongoing eye issues. 👀🐶
After a thorough consultation, Daisy was diagnosed with entropion in both eyelids — a condition where the eyelids roll inward, causing the lashes to rub against the eyeball, which can be very uncomfortable. 😣
Daisy had corrective surgery and is doing amazingly well! 🎉
Today was her 2nd post-op checkup with Dr. Jonathan, and we’re so pleased with her progress. We’ll see this beautiful girl again in 4 weeks!
Keep healing, Daisy — we’re all rooting for you! 💕🐾

🐶 Happy Hump Day, Everyone!
Meet little Hazel — an adorable 5-month-old Bulldog who came in to see Dr. Robin Stanley with a case of cherry eye in her left eye. 👁️💕
Cherry eye occurs when the gland of the third eyelid prolapses and becomes visible, often causing discomfort and irritation. To help Hazel feel her best, we performed a procedure to remove the pr*****ed gland and relieve her discomfort.
We’re happy to report that Hazel is doing great, and this sweet photo was taken at her post-op appointment! 💖
Wishing Hazel and her wonderful family all the best as she continues to heal and grow! 🐾✨
