Summary

Bilateral conjunctival masses in two dogs were surgically removed. One mass was a hemangioma potentially linked to UV radiation, while the other was a congenital inclusion cyst.

Area of Science:

Veterinary Ophthalmology
Dermatology

Background:

Conjunctival masses in dogs can have various etiologies.
Accurate diagnosis is crucial for appropriate treatment and prognosis.

Observation:

Two dogs presented with bilateral conjunctival masses.
Surgical excision was performed for both cases.

Findings:

One case revealed hemangiomas, possibly associated with ultraviolet (UV) radiation exposure.
The second case involved conjunctival inclusion cysts, likely of congenital origin.

Implications:

This study highlights diverse causes of bilateral conjunctival masses in dogs.
Understanding potential links to environmental factors like UV radiation is important for canine eye health.
Congenital conditions should be considered in young dogs with such presentations.
