OtherItem Open Access Evaluation of PCO in Diabetic and Non Diabetic Dogs after Multifocal Hydrophilic and Hydrophobic IOL Implants Following Endophacoemulsification by EPCO 2000 Software(TANUVAS, Chennai, 2016-12) Kalaka, Rambabu; Ramani, C.; Nagarajan, L.; Kumary, S. Usha; Ramesh, S.; Ganesh, T.N.ArticleItem Open Access Incidence of Cataract in Diabetic and Nondiabetic Dogs: A Research Study(2017-03) Kalaka, Rambabu; Ramani, C; Nagarajan, L, et al.; TANUVASThe cases presented over a period of 24 months from March 2013 to February 2015 to the Small Animal Ophthalmology unit of the Madras Veterinary College Teaching Hospital, Chennai, were screened for the incidence and stage of cataract. Incidence of non diabetic and diabetic cataractous dogs were recorded and the variables like breed, age, gender, eyes affected were noted. The study recorded an incidence of 14.96 per cent cataracts among 2580 cases. Highest incidence was recorded in Spitz (34%). In Gender wise males had more incidence (58.49%) compared to the female dogs. The age group of 6 to 10 years had the highest incidence of 40.25 per cent.ArticleItem Open Access Intra and Post Operative Complications in Diabetic and Nondiabetic Cataract Dogs after Multifocal Hydrophilic and Hydrophobic IOL Implantation Following Endophacoemulsification(2017-04) Kalaka, Rambabu; Ramani, C; Nagarajan, L, et al.; TANUVASThe cases presented over a period of 24 months from March 2013 to February 2015 to the Small Animal Ophthalmology unit of the Madras Veterinary College Teaching Hospital, Chennai, were screened for the incidence and stage of cataract. Twenty four cooperative dogs with good owner compliance were selected from the cases of cataract based on the suitability for anaesthesia.They were divided randomly into two groups consisting of twelve dogs each and each group was again sub divided into subgroup A (nondiabetic) and subgroup B (diabetic) consisting of six dogs each. One group was subjected to endophacoemulsification with the implantation of multifocal hydrophilic intraocular lenses while the other group was subjected to endophacoemulsification with the implantation of multifocal hydrophobic lenses.The complications recorded were intra operative miosis, hyphema and post operative aqueous flare, fibrin deposits, IOL decentration, posterior synechia, intraocular hemorrhage, endophthalmitis and PCO.ArticleItem Open Access LOWER EYELID RECONSTRUCTIVE SURGERY AFTER SEBACEOUS GLAND ADENOMA RESECTION IN A GERMAN SHEPHERD DOG: A CASE REPORT(2014-09) Ramani, C; Kalaka, Rambabu; Nagarajan, L, et al.,; TANUVASA 7 year-old female German shepherd dog was presented to small animal ophthalmology unit, Department of Veterinary Surgery and Radiology, Madras Veterinary College, Teaching Hospital, Chennai with a mass in the right lower eyelid. Complete excision of the tumor was performed under general anaesthesia. The extent of skin loss in the lower eyelid required reconstruction, so the sliding skin flap or H blepharoplasty technique was performed. Successful treatment of lower eyelid mass was achieved by surgical removal and no recurrence was noticed during the subsequent months. The mass was histologically diagnosed as a sebaceous gland adenoma. A "H blepharoplasty" resulted in satisfactory functional and cosmetic outcome.ArticleItem Open Access Lower Eyelid Reconstructive Surgery and Resection of Sebaceous Adenocarcinoma in a Dog(2016-07) Ramani, C; Kalaka, Rambabu; Ganesan, Shriram; TANUVASA nine year old male Doberman dog was presented with mass in lower eyelid (OD). Complete tumor excision was performed under general anaesthesia. The extent of skin loss in the lower eyelid required reconstruction, so H blepharoplasty or sliding skin flap technique was performed. Successful treatment of lower eyelid mass was achieved by surgical removal and no recurrence was noticed later. The mass was histopathologically diagnosed as sebaceous gland adenocarcinoma. A ‘H blepharoplasty’ resulted in satisfactory cosmetic and functional outcome.ArticleItem Open Access Normal Ocular Fundus Imaging of Domestic Goat (Capra hircus)(Intas Pharmaceuticals Ltd., 2017-07) Kalaka, Rambabu; Ramani, C.; TANUVASThe study was aimed to evaluate the normal ocular fundus of domestic goat (Capra hircus) using fundus imaging camera. Normal ocular fundus of caprines differs from ovines and bovines. The optic disc was more distinct, round and more prominent and located within the tapetal fundus. The primary retinal blood vessels are quite prominent. The vascular pattern was holangiotic and was similar to other ruminants.ThesisItem Open Access VISUAL PERFORMANCE OF HYDROPHILIC AND HYDROPHOBIC MUTLIFOCAL INTRA OCULAR LENS (IOL) IMPLANTATION AFTER ENDOPHACOEMULSIFICATION IN DIABETIC AND NON DIABETIC CATARACTOUS DOGs(TANUVAS, Chennai, 2015) Kalaka, Rambabu; TANUVAS; Ramani, C.; Ganesh, T.N.; Kumary, S. Usha; Ramesh, S.Phacoemulsification lens extraction and artificial intraocular lens (IOL) implantation can offer a favorable success rate and is considered as the most appropriate technique for the treatment of cataract. The lenses used in the study were of multifocal hydrophilic or hydrophobic acrylics.
