| Summary, etc. | The efficacy of various treatments for glaucoma were studied in nine cases. Dogs presented with the ophthalmological complaints were thoroughly examined and eight dogs with elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) were selected for the study. Initially medical treatment was given and for those cases which are refractory to medical treatment, surgical treatment was adopted. The medical treatment consisted of a combination of oral administration of carbonic anhydrase enzyme inhibitors and ocular instillation of beta blockers. The surgical techniques adopted was iridectomy and trabeculectomy. Both performed under general anaesthesia. Parenteral administration of antibiotics, topical instillation of polymyxin-choramphenicol eyedrops, flurbiprofen eyedrops were given on the post operative days. The incidence of glaucoma was 11% among the cases presented with the ophthalmological complaints. The dogs belonged to various breeds like Spitz, Dachshund, Labrador Retriever, Cocker Spaniel and Mongrel dogs of either sex with an average age of 8.61 years( range 3 years to 14 years). The major clinical signs observed were episcleral congestion, corneal oedema, vascularization of cornea, mydriasis, congestion of conjunctival blood vessels and buphthalmos. Medical management with oral administration of carbonic anhydrase enzyme inhibitors and beta blockers effectively reduced the IOP for short term period but in long term management they were ineffective. Panting and gastrointestinal upsets, cardiac arrhythmia were the side effects observed in animals underwent medical therapy. Surgical procedure iridectomy effectively reduced the IOP but the post operative complications like anterior synechiae and corneal oedema limited the success of this technique. Surgical procedure trabeculectomy effectively reduced the IOP without any significant post operative complications and lowering of IOP lasted for more than six months. The advantages of trabeculectomy over iridectomy were greater reduction in IOP with a clear cornea and absence of post operative complication like anterior synechiae. |
