The Animal Ophthalmology Clinic is limited to the specialty of veterinary ophthalmology (diseases and surgery of the eye and adjacent structures), and provides diagnosis and treatment of ocular problems in all animal species. Please do not request other veterinary services. With advanced training and expertise in their selected fields, veterinary specialists bring acutely honed skills and knowledge to supplement the medical care from a referring general practitioner.

We also maintain close ties with veterinary ophthalmologists in other parts of the world. At the Animal Ophthalmology Clinic, we take pride in employing veterinary specialists who are board certified diplomates of the American College of Veterinary Ophthalmologists (A.C.V.O.) and veterinarians who are working toward their certification.
