Ocular Ultrasound

– 3 year Australian Shephard born with multiple ocular abnormalities diagnosed by a veterinary ophthalmologist (microphthalmia, shallow anterioer chamber, eccentric pupils, microcornea)

– born blind in the right eye

– acute blindness of the left eye 3 days ago with hyphema and hemmorrhage – can not see posterior structures

– ultrasound of the left eye shows thickened, hyperechoic lens and linear hyperechoic lesions in the posterior chamber

What could these lesions be? detached retina? fibrin?

Well Im not an expert at ocular but form my exprience it looks like a seagull sign for retinal detachment and the lens has chronic changes and not uniform. Whats the ocular pressure and blood pressure?

Thanks guys – sent the scan

Thanks guys – sent the scan to a radiologist for evaluation and agreed that retinal detachment was likely present although a challenging case due to all the other freaky stuff going on in the eye.

This dog did have elevated ocular pressures and was started on a glaucoma regime. Prognosis for sight again is nil 🙁
