FalKor
Lens Luxation
Lens luxation refers to a condition in which the lens is 'free-floating' and, in FalKor's case, protruding outside of the eye socket. This condition is excruciating, and it appears that FalKor has been living with this for many years due to a severe eye injury. He is permanently blind in his right eye, and the eye specialist at LGCR indicates that this blindness is the result of untreated inflammation.
What are the next steps?
Enucleation is a surgical procedure that involves removing a dog's eye. It is typically considered a last resort when other treatments have failed or the eye condition seriously threatens the dog's health.
How quickly will FalKor benefit from enucleation?
FalKor will experience immediate relief. The source of his constant, severe pain will be eliminated. Once recovered, anticipate FalKor's twirling little tail spinning out of control with relief, health, and happiness.
