Area of Science:

  • Veterinary Ophthalmology
  • Canine Medicine

Background:

  • Canine follicular conjunctivitis (CFC) is a common ocular condition.
  • Understanding its incidence, clinical features, and treatment outcomes is crucial for effective management.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the incidence, clinical features, treatment, and outcome of canine follicular conjunctivitis (CFC).

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective review of medical records for 153 dogs diagnosed with CFC.
  • Evaluation of signalment, clinical signs, cytology, treatment, and outcomes.
  • Classification of dogs into young (YD < 18 months) and adult (AD ≥ 18 months) groups.

Main Results:

  • CFC occurred bilaterally and affected males more frequently.
  • Young dogs exhibited more severe disease and increased nictitating membrane involvement.
  • Adult dogs showed faster treatment response, with 80.6% complete resolution at 1 month.

Conclusions:

  • Canine follicular conjunctivitis presentation varies with age; adult dogs have milder, faster-resolving cases.
  • Topical diclofenac is effective for mild CFC in young dogs.
  • Topical dexamethasone is recommended for moderate to severe CFC in young dogs.
