Exclusive Services
At Bright Eye Veterinary Care, we’re happy to offer free advice to fellow veterinary professionals who need guidance on ophthalmology cases. Simply send us a brief email with any relevant patient photos, and we’ll do our best to help. Please note that some cases may still require an in-person examination for a thorough assessment.
​
If there is a procedure you would like to refer that is not listed among our services, please don’t hesitate to contact us to discuss how we can assist.

A comprehensive evaluation of ocular health is given after a thorough examination of the anterior and posterior chambers of the eye. Slit lamp biomicroscopy , tonometry, tear film evaluation and binocular indirect ophthalmoscopy are included in every consultation. ​ Additional services may be offered on initial consultation to include: Ocular Ultrasound Clear view 2 fundic camera photography Colourmetric pupillary light testing Ocular debridement of ulcerative conditions Cytological sampling
Parotid duct transposition (PDT) is a surgical procedure performed under general anesthesia typically performed on dogs to treat conditions related to chronic dry eye or failure of normal tear production, such as keratoconjunctivitis sicca (KCS), or to correct abnormal tear flow. The procedure involves rerouting the parotid duct, which normally empties saliva into the mouth, so that it drains into the conjunctiva of the eye instead. This helps provide moisture to the eye and alleviates symptoms of dry eye.
​This procedure is performed under general anaesthesia to ensure optimal patient comfort and surgical precision. Liquid nitrogen is carefully applied to the affected hair follicles—such as those associated with ectopic cilia, distichiasis, and trichiasis—to promote long-lasting results following epilation.
​This procedure is performed under general anaesthesia to ensure maximum patient comfort and optimal surgical precision. Prior to surgery, the patency of the lacrimal puncta and ducts is carefully assessed. In cases of obstruction, the puncta are dilated and the ducts irrigated to restore proper drainage and prevent postoperative epiphora or periocular infection.
This procedure is performed under general anaesthesia to ensure patient comfort and precision during surgery. The prolapsed nictitans gland is carefully repositioned and secured within the third eyelid, preserving its function and helping to prevent the future development of keratoconjunctivitis sicca (dry eye).
(Also known as Indolent or Boxer Ulcers) These cases are managed under general anaesthesia to allow for thorough ocular disinfection, careful debridement, and performance of a diamond burr keratotomy to promote epithelial adhesion. Following the procedure, a bandage contact lens is placed, and a temporary lateral tarsorrhaphy is performed to protect the cornea and support healing. Additional services such as cytological sampling may also be provided to assess for concurrent infection or inflammatory changes.
These procedures are performed under general anaesthesia to ensure patient comfort and optimal surgical conditions. For feline corneal sequestrum removal, the corneal surface is carefully disinfected before performing a lamellar keratectomy to excise the affected tissue. Following removal, a bandage contact lens is placed, and a temporary lateral tarsorrhaphy is performed to help secure the lens and protect the cornea during healing. The management of corneal foreign bodies is tailored to each individual case, depending on the nature, depth, and location of the material. In some instances, superficial keratectomy may be required for complete removal, and corneal suturing may be necessary if there is significant stromal involvement or defect following extraction. Additional procedures such as xenografting or cornea-conjunctival grafting may also be necessary in cases of deep ulceration.
This procedure is performed under general anaesthesia to ensure patient comfort and precise surgical control. A section of healthy conjunctival tissue is carefully mobilised and sutured onto the affected area of the cornea to provide structural support, promote healing, and preserve vision. The graft aids in restoring ocular integrity following corneal injury, ulceration, or disease, and is followed by close postoperative monitoring to ensure optimal recovery and graft success. Additional procedures such as bandage contact lens placement or cytological sampling for concurrent infection may be indicated.
The procedure is carried out under general anaesthesia to ensure the patient’s comfort, safety, and the highest level of surgical precision. The affected eyelid is carefully prepared, and the mass is surgically removed along with a small margin of healthy tissue to ensure complete excision while preserving normal eyelid function. Depending on the extent of tissue removed, additional procedures such as skin grafts may be performed to achieve the best possible cosmetic result. The excised tissue is often sent for histological examination, providing valuable information for accurate prognostic assessment and post-operative planning.
Entropion and ectropion surgery is performed under general anaesthesia. In entropion, where the eyelid rolls inward, the surgeon removes a small section of eyelid ,enabling correct positioning, preventing the lashes from rubbing the eye. In ectropion, where the eyelid rolls outward, the procedure tightens or reshapes the eyelid so it rests properly against the eye. The goal of both surgeries is to restore normal eyelid function, protect the eye, and improve the animal’s comfort. To avoid over correction, these surgeries may require additional surgical procedures following post operative assessment.
Whilst our primary goal is to preserve vision and maintain ocular health whenever possible, there are certain cases—such as severe infections or neoplasia—where enucleation may unfortunately be necessary. The surgical removal of the eye is performed under general anaesthesia, with meticulous attention to every detail to optimize post-operative cosmetic outcomes. Additional services, including histopathological evaluation of the excised globe, may also be recommended to give prognostic and diagnostic information
