    DIAGNOSTIC AND THERAPEUTIC MANAGEMENT OF CORNEAL AND UVEAL AFFECTIONS IN ANIMALS
    (CSKHPKV, Palampur, 2017-07-27) MASTAKAR, NIKITA VIVEK; Tyagi, S. P.
    The study was done to record the regional occurrence of ocular affections in animals and to analyse their diagnosis and therapeutic management with special reference to corneal and uveal affections. The study was done at Department of Veterinary Surgery and Radiology, Palampur from August, 2015 to March, 2017. The overall regional incidence of ocular cases in animals was recorded to be 11.05 per cent with highest incidence in dogs (12.47%) followed by equine (12.34%), bovine (7.65%) and other species (7.31%). Among the corneal affections, keratitis (43.95%) and among the uveal affections, the anterior uveitis (64.51%) were the most frequently seen conditions in animals. Different types of medicinal and surgical managements tailored for individual case were undertaken mostly with success. Majority of keratitis can be successfully treated by combinations of topical antibiotics, steroid, cycloplegic and lacrimomimetic, sub conjunctival steroid with systemic antibiotic and anti-inflammatory drugs. Pannus and pigmentary keratitis can be controlled with long term use of topical Prednisolone and cyclosporine. Combination of topical corticosteroid along with antibiotic and cycloplegic agent in uncomplicated cases of anterior uveitis relieve the symptoms. Superficial lamellar keratectomy for dermoid and pigmentary keratitis, parotid duct transposition for refractory KCS, conjunctival grafting for deep corneal ulcers and staphyloma, medial canthoplasty for macropalpebral fissure and tarsoconjunctival flap resection for distichia removal were successful in definite treatment of respective conditions. Soft contact bandage lenses were found useful as an adjunct therapy in condition of ulcer and after performing lamellar superficial keratectomy.
