Klinika dla Małych Zwierząt Wąsiatycz Veterinary Ophthalmologist - Poznań

Eye problems in animals often appear suddenly and can worsen quickly. Redness, squinting, excessive tearing, discharge, pain, light sensitivity, or sudden deterioration of vision are all signs that should not be ignored. At the Wąsiatycz Small Animal Clinic in Poznań, we provide diagnostics and treatment of eye diseases in dogs and cats - both in emergency cases and in chronic conditions requiring regular follow-up.

It is worth scheduling an ophthalmology consultation as soon as possible if your pet develops:

• a red eye, squinting, rubbing the face against the ground,
• excessive tearing, purulent discharge, or an unpleasant odor around the eye,
• pain, light sensitivity, or swollen eyelids,
• corneal or lens opacity, a "white haze" in the eye,
• suspected eye injury, a foreign body, or sudden deterioration of vision.

A prompt consultation helps relieve pain, prevent complications, and protect vision - especially in conditions such as corneal ulcers or suspected glaucoma.

During the consultation, we take a detailed medical history and perform a comprehensive ophthalmic examination. We assess the structures of the eye and its adnexa (eyelids and conjunctiva), and then select the appropriate diagnostics and treatment based on the patient's symptoms. This allows us to quickly determine the cause of the problem and plan effective therapy - from conservative treatment to surgical procedures.

Ophthalmic examinations performed include:

• ophthalmic examination using a slit lamp, direct ophthalmoscopy, and indirect ophthalmoscopy,
• tonometry (intraocular pressure measurement),
• gonioscopy,
• retinoscopy (refractive error assessment),
• electroretinography (ERG),
• ocular and orbital ultrasound.

Ophthalmic treatments and procedures:

• treatment of infections affecting the eyeball and its adnexa,
• surgical procedures involving the eyeball and its adnexa, including:
  • glaucoma surgery (trabeculectomy),
  • surgical treatment of corneal ulcers,
  • eyelash cryoepilation,
  • corneal cross-linking,
  • removal of a lens luxated into the anterior chamber.

We treat, among others, conjunctivitis, corneal ulcers, dry eye syndrome, glaucoma, cataracts in dogs and cats, as well as eyelid disorders (such as entropion and ectropion). Depending on the diagnosis, we implement medical treatment, provide home care recommendations, or qualify the patient for surgery. For chronic conditions, we establish a follow-up plan, as regular monitoring allows us to detect deterioration earlier and maintain your pet's comfort.

If you notice redness, tearing, squinting, eye pain, or deterioration of vision in your pet, contact us and schedule an ophthalmology consultation in Poznań.
