    Author: Barrett PM, Merideth RE, Alarcon FL.
    Journal: J Am Anim Hosp Assoc; 1995; 31(3):242-5. PubMed ID: 7634059.
    Abstract:
    A 12-year-old, castrated male, domestic shorthair cat with a previous penetrating trauma to the left globe which progressed to a phthisical eye presented for acute blindness. Ophthalmic examination and electroretinography of the right eye were found to be normal. Following euthanasia, gross and microscopic examinations were completed. A left intraocular, posttraumatic fibrosarcoma with extension to the optic nerve and chiasm and induced right optic nerve fiber degeneration at the optic chiasm with necrosis leading to central amaurosis were diagnosed.
