Needs Opthalmologist

Update posted 3 years ago

Louie went to the vet, who confirmed our suspicions. His pupils are indeed two different sizes. While we are waiting on bloodwork results, his vet also referred Louie to an ophthalmologist--a vet with a specialty in vision and eye disorders, with the right experience and expertise to give Louie the best shot possible. 


We remain hopeful that treatment is possible. That we can save what eyesight Louie has left and find a plan that provides the best quality of life.

Louie is a young pup. Just 3 years old. He has a goofy smile and loving personality. But lately he hasn't been himself. We suspect he may have a condition known as anisocoria, in which his pupils are two different sizes. The whites of his eyes have started to yellow. We suspect he is in a great deal of pain, which would also explain his behavior changes. 


Because of the changes to the pupils, it is possible that Louie's vision has been affected. And if we don't act quickly, he may even go blind.


Anisocoria has many different causes, and we can't be sure what's might be the source of the condition for Louie. Until we know more, we can't treat it. Louie desperately needs a trip to vet, along with bloodwork and x-rays to get to the bottom of this condition. 


With luck, we can find the underlying cause and get Louie back to feeling his best! Or at least, find a way to manage the condition and provide as much care and relief as possible.
