Equine practitioners can confidently assess the equine fundus by understanding normal variations and practicing ophthalmology. Mastering these basics allows for the detection of retinal, optic nerve, and vitreal abnormalities in horses.

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Veterinary Medicine
  • Equine Science

Background:

  • The equine fundus requires specialized knowledge for accurate interpretation.
  • Recognizing normal variations is crucial before identifying abnormalities.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To equip equine practitioners with the knowledge to confidently assess the equine fundus.
  • To facilitate the identification of various equine ocular pathologies.

Main Methods:

  • Review of normal equine fundus appearance and variations.
  • Discussion and illustration of congenital and acquired lesions.
  • Emphasis on practical application during ophthalmic examinations.

Main Results:

  • Enhanced practitioner confidence in equine fundus assessment.
