Beatrice, a 10-year-old Basset Hound, had lost her left eye to glaucoma a few years back. When her owner noticed swelling in her right eye, she brought Beatrice to the emergency room at Henry and Lois Foster Hospital for Small Animals where the Ophthalmology Team was able to save her eye.

"The quality of the doctors and the care provided by the staff there is just outstanding. It has helped Beatrice maintain a good quality of life, and that is the most important part. She can still have a very full life with that one eye. We've gained 15 months of her having sight in that eye. We are so grateful for everything Dr. Yang and her team have done for Beatrice."
Beatrice's owner, Amy Herlihy
