Question
I have a miniature Schnauzer, who is 4 years old and in good health, but a couple days ago I noticed that his right eye is bluish and the left eye is normal (dark).
I took two pictures to compare them with each other:
I set up an appointment with a veterinarian, but in my city I was only able to get an appointment for Saturday, and I'm worried about his situation.
Is this something I worry about? Does it look like a cataracts disease, or maybe an eye injury?
What could cause his eye to be blue, and what can I do before his appointment with the veterinarian this weekend?
Answer
I got a veterinarian ophthalmologist at an emergency clinic. And the news is not so good. My baby has an hereditary cataracts, and apparently sees only shadows in the right eye. And the prognostic is attacking the left eye also.
The vet advised a surgery to remove the cataracts as soon as possible, and after put a lens to see properly again. In the next days I will do an evaluation for surgery.
I'm a little afraid. But I believe everything will be alright.
Thanks for the support.
