Event Details

This 3 hour advanced equine ophthalmology series delivers comprehensive insights into challenging ocular conditions through three focused sessions: 1 Hour: Management of Common Equine Corneal Conditions: Addresses varied presentations of ocular surface squamous cell carcinoma, infectious keratitis, stromal abscesses, and immune-mediated corneal disease. Features diagnostic sampling techniques, current antimicrobial protocols, and surgical intervention strategies for improved patient outcomes. 1 Hour: Management of Frustrating Equine Intraocular Issues: Explores diagnostic approaches and treatment strategies for challenging cases of equine recurrent uveitis, glaucoma, and cataracts as well as lesser common iris and posterior segment abnormalities. Covers interpretation of advanced imaging techniques, current medical therapies, and discussion of surgical options. Long-term management strategies for chronic conditions are emphasized with discussion of therapeutic outcomes. 1 Hour: Management of Equine Adnexal, Orbital and Neuro-Ophtho Disorders: Focuses on a variety of periocular and neuro-ophthalmic conditions. Includes surgical planning for eyelid issues, diagnostic approaches to orbital disease, and assessment of neurological conditions. Enucleation considerations and surgical tips will also be addressed for when an eye is irreversibly, blind and painful or simply cannot be saved. The course features extensive clinical images and case discussions, supported by current literature and evidence-based treatment protocols. Sessions bridge the gap between routine cases and complex presentations requiring advanced therapeutic approaches.
