\u2022 \u00a0In ferrets<\/span><\/h2>\n

Conjunctivits caused by various agents including Distemper are\u00a0common in ferrets. Cataracts are also observed quite often in\u00a0ferrets and, like in dogs and cats, cataract surgery is possible in\u00a0this species. Retinal degeneration has also been reported in\u00a0ferrets.

\u2022\u00a0In rats<\/span><\/h2>\n

An infection of an accessory lacrymal gland , called the Harder gland , is known in rats and a\u00a0reddish ocular discharge is observed and stains the hair when it happens\u2026Stress, husbandry issues,\u00a0lack of water or amino acids are a few of the causes of this diseases. Conjunctivitis is really frequent\u00a0is rats and mice and many factors may be involved.<\/p>\n

\u2022\u00a0In rabbits<\/span><\/h2>\n

Severe Ocular discharge either aqueous or purulent is frequent in rabbit. It is mainly an affection of\u00a0the naso-lacrymal system when there is a chronic inflammation of the sinuses, conjunctivitis and a\u00a0tooth abscess. It is possible to treat this condition especially if the cause is known. However, in some\u00a0cases , it is impossible to resolve completely the issue. Inflammation of the conjunctiva and of the\u00a0eyelids are quite frequent in rabbits and an infectious (virus or bacteria) or parasitic cause is often\u00a0involved. Corneal ulcers (wound of the cornea, the front transparent part of the eye) are frequent in\u00a0rabbits. The treatments can be medical and|or surgical. Indolent corneal ulcers are seen in the\u00a0rabbit: it is an ulcer that does not get worse but does not heal. Inflammation within the eye , called\u00a0uveitis , is also reported in rabbit and many causes have been found ( corneal ulcers, cataract as\u00a0well as a parasite ,Encephalitozoon cuniculi that causes neurological signs in addition to the uveitis.\u00a0Caratacts in a rabbit can be operated like in other species.[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row admin_label=”Ligne”

\u2022 In\u00a0reptiles<\/span><\/h2>\n

Inflammation of the eyelids or the conjunctiva is frequent in Reptiles and various causes such as\u00a0infection (bacteria, viruses), parasitic infestation, nutrition imbalance (such as vitamin A deficiency in\u00a0aquatic turtles that causes severe inflammation of the eyelids and conjunctiva with purulent\u00a0discharge) have been reported. Snakes do not have eyelids but they have a transparent layer,\u00a0called a spectacle that covers and protects the cornea (which is the transparent windshield of the\u00a0eye). Sometimes the spectacle does not fall when the animal sheds (ecdysis cycles) and there is an\u00a0accumulation of retained dry tissue over the cornea. It is possible to remove them cautiously.\u00a0Formation of an abscess between the cornea and the spectacle can also be observed (the\u00a0spectacle loses its transparency and becomes yellowish). The origin of this abscess can be traumatic\u00a0or an ascending infection coming from the lachrymal ducts. These abscesses can be treated by\u00a0drainage and the use of antibiotics but they can be difficult to treat.<\/p>\n

\u2022\u00a0In birds<\/span><\/h2>\n

Conjunctivitis is very frequent in birds: the origin can be traumatic (from scratching), infectious\u00a0(bacteria, viruses), parasitic (Thelazia), and nutritional (deficiency in vitamin A). Inflammation of the\u00a0cornea (keratitis) can be associated with conjunctivitis. Cataract are also observed in birds.[\/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”
