Il est possible que la cataracte cause un peu d\u2019inflammation dans l\u2019oeil. Ainsi, votre animal\u00a0recevra sans doute des gouttes anti-inflammatoires une \u00e0 deux semaines avant la chirurgie.\u00a0Il est important de ne pas arr\u00eater ce traitement sans avis contraire de notre part.<\/p>\n

V\u00e9rifiez votre emploi du temps pour les 4-6 semaines apr\u00e8s la date pr\u00e9vue pour la chirurgie\u00a0et assurez-vous que vous serez assez disponible pour votre animal afin d\u2019effectuer les soins\u00a0post-op\u00e9ratoires et les contr\u00f4les de fa\u00e7on assidue. Les traitements post-op\u00e9ratoires sont tr\u00e8s\u00a0fr\u00e9quents apr\u00e8s la chirurgie et leur fr\u00e9quence diminue sur plusieurs semaines selon les\u00a0progr\u00e8s de votre animal. Il est tr\u00e8s possible que votre animal reste sous traitement \u00e0 vie (une\u00a0goutte un jour sur deux par exemple) qu\u2019il soit op\u00e9r\u00e9 ou non.<\/p>\n

My dog is a candidate for surgery – What now?<\/span><\/h3>\n

Depending upon the age and overall health of your pet, pre-operative tests may include blood work, urinalysis, ear or teeth cleaning and x-rays to evaluate the heart. Most of these tests and treatments can be done with your regular veterinarian. Eye tests will be scheduled to make sure the retina (\u201cfilm of the camera\u201d) is healthy. These two tests are an ultrasound of the eye and an electroretinogram (ERG). These tests are done without anesthesia and are non-painful to your pet. A light sedation is usually given. The ERG and ocular ultrasound will be performed within 2 weeks before cataract surgery is scheduled (usually the day before surgery). Your pet will be dropped off in the morning (8am) and stay for the day. When the tests are completed, we will call you with the results and give you a time for pick-up (usually in the evening) or we will keep him the night for the surgery the following morning.<\/p>\n

You may be given drops or ointment to put in the eye even before surgery is performed. Be sure to continue any prescribed medications until directed otherwise. Take a close look at your schedule during the first 4-6 weeks following the planned surgery to make sure this will be a good time for your family to commit to postoperative care of your pet. Eye medications will be required several times daily and slowly decreased over several weeks depending on your pet\u2019s progress. It is possible for some pets to remain on some kind of eye medication for life, no matter if they have undergone surgery or not.[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row admin_label=”Ligne” _builder_version=”3.25″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”3.25″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_text admin_label=”Texte” _builder_version=”3.27.4″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid” global_colors_info=”{}”]Download the PDF version of the article<\/span><\/a>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"on","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"oculaires_categories":[41],"class_list":["post-12862","maladies_oculaires","type-maladies_oculaires","status-publish","hentry","oculaires_categories-iris-lens-and-pressure"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nCataract: Tests Before Surgery | Ophtalmov\u00e9t\u00e9rinaire<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/ophtalmoveterinaire.com\/en\/ocular_diseases\/cataract-tests-before-surgery\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Cataract: Tests Before Surgery | Ophtalmov\u00e9t\u00e9rinaire\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Cette chirurgie permettra de lui restaurer sa vision et ainsi d\u2019am\u00e9liorer sa qualit\u00e9 de vie.
