Our board-certified veterinary ophthalmologist at Hope Advanced Veterinary Center specializes in treatment of diseases and disorders of the eye in dogs and cats.
Specialized Eye Care for Vienna Pets
Similar to humans, pets may experience issues with their eyes that can lead to a wide range of symptoms, from discharge, squinting and tearing to eye rubbing, red eye, cloudiness, and gradual or sudden eye loss.
Eye conditions that can potentially affect your pet range from minor to severe, and may lead to discomfort or have a long-term impact on your pet's vision. When caught early, treatment can reduce pain and preserve your pet's eyesight.
At Hope Advanced Veterinary Center, we can perform procedures to improve the health and function of the eye. We're able to diagnose and treat virtually any eye disease or condition including infections, cataracts, glaucoma, tumors, uveitis, dry eye, corneal ulcers and more.
Referrals from your primary vet are required for ophthalmology consultations.
