Hi all & sorry off here so long but last Fri. our unknown age tuxedo cat was diagnosed in emergency w/ Glaucoma in r. eye. The surgeon opted to remove it asap due to inflammation & causing serious pain as it was totally blind.
It was very costly but even more heartbreaking seeing her Fri. aft. w/ a cone head on in carrier, when they gave her back after she awoke from surgery. She no longer can see out the r. eye as its stitched over & doc said it will grow fur over it.
I am stunned & traumatized myself seeing this & so sad & devastated this happened to her, as in '12 (3 yrs after we caught as a stray of unknown age then in '09) she went thru I-131 Radiation treatment for Hyperthyroidism. So now been thru alot.
Ok, well they sent the affected eye to lab & will have followup w/ her & doc next wk when lab results confirm the cause, we hope.
Ayone ever deal w/ this or know any regarding it? TY.
