  • Step 1: Patient History & Diagnostics

    Once we have received all your information, we will bring you and your pet into an examination room and obtain a thorough history.

    Initial diagnostic tests including a Schirmer tear test, applanation tonometry, and vital staining will be completed.

  • Step 2: Comprehensive Exam & Additional Diagnostics

    The ophthalmologist will then perform a complete exam. The exam will include vision testing, slit lamp examination (biomicroscopy), and indirect ophthalmoscopy.

    The ophthalmologist will then discuss with you the current ocular condition and make therapeutic and/or further diagnostic recommendations.

    Other diagnostic techniques that may be performed include gonioscopy, nasolacrimal flushing, harvesting of corneal and conjunctival cells, cytology, aqueocentesis, ocular ultrasound, electroretinography, genetic testing for inherited eye disease, and blood pressure measurement.

  • Step 3: Discharge & Next Steps

    When your visit is completed, you will be provided with discharge instructions containing a diagnosis, directions for medical therapy, and a description of the current ocular condition.

    The ophthalmologist will also send your primary care veterinarian a referral letter to inform them of their findings. We strive to work with your veterinarian to provide the best comprehensive care possible.
