A dislocation of the lens (partial or complete) is a condition that can develop in dogs and cats. If left untreated a luxated lens can result in irreversible loss of vision. As such making a rapid and accurate diagnosis and providing proper treatment is essential. In this Ophthalmology Mashup, Dr. Brad Holmberg discusses causes for this condition, tips for making the diagnosis (as not all cases are easy to diagnose), as well as best practices for managing affected patients once the diagnosis is made.
