dc.description.abstractCataract, the opacity of crystalline lens is regarded as major cause of blindness in dogs affecting thousands of dogs annually and also different species of animals. Aphakic vision is much better in dogs as loss of lens causes loss of only finer details, which are not of great importance in pet dogs. In the present study, evaluation of cataract surgery using operative microscope was conducted in 28 eyes from 20 out of 36 clinical cases of dogs with history of vision abnormalities due to cataract. Out of 36 dogs presented with cataract, 75 % (27 dogs) were from the age group of 8-18 years while, 25 % (9 dogs) were between 1-7 years of age. The average age of the affected dogs was 09.28 ± 0.5 years indicating that dogs above 8 years of age are more prone to development of cataract. In the present study. Spitz dogs had higher incidence of cataract (14 dogs, 38 %) followed by mongrel (9 dogs, 25 %) as compared to the other breeds [Labrador (5 dogs, 14 %), GSD (3 dogs, 8 %), Dalmatian and Cocker Spaniel (2 dogs each, 06 %) and Lhasa Apso (3 %)] of the dogs. The number of cataract cases alone and with bilateral mature cases were encountered more in Spitz (13 dogs, 55 %) followed by mongrel (5 dogs, 21 %), Labrador and GSD (2 dogs each, 8 %), Cocker spaniel and Dalmatian (1 dog each, 4 %)en_US
