  • Title: Spontaneous cataract resorption and lens-induced uveitis in the dog.
    Author: Gelatt KN.
    Journal: Mod Vet Pract; 1975 May; 56(5):331-5. PubMed ID: 1169683.
    Abstract:
    Spontaneous cataract resorption and the associated lens-induced uveitis occur primarily in young dogs, especially the Afghan Hound, American Cocker Spaniel, Boston Terrier, Miniature and Toy Poodle, and Miniature Schnauzer. The resorption process, if extensive, will restore vision without surgical intervention, but medical control of the lens-induced uveitis by use of mydriatics and, infrequently, topical and systemic corticosteroids is essential. The main potential complications, severe medically nonresponsive uveitis and glaucoma, necessitate immediate cataract extraction.
