4047. PHOTOGRAPHY TIPS: Cataract in an old poodle

The most common cause of cataracts in the dog is inherited disease. Other causes include injuries to the eye or diseases such as diabetes mellitus ("sugar diabetes"). Some cataracts appear to occur spontaneously and are age related.

 


Will my dog go blind?

If cataracts occupy less than 30% of the lens or if only one lens is affected, they rarely cause diminished vision. When the opacity covers about 60% of the total lens area, visual impairment often becomes apparent. If the opacity progresses to 100% of the lens, the dog will be blind in the affected eye. However, whether the cataract remains static or progresses will depend on the type of cataract, the breed and other risk factors.

  • Cataracts may also be described as incipient, immature, mature, and hypermature.
  • Incipient – so small it often requires magnification to diagnose. These involve less than 15% of the lens and cause no visual deficits.
  • Immature – involves greater than 15% of the lens and often involves multiple layers of the lens or different areas. The retina can still be seen during examination and visual deficits are typically mild.
  • Mature – involve the entire lens and the retina cannot be seen during examination. Visual deficits are often significant with blindness or near-blindness often observed.
  • Hypermature – the lens begins to shrink and the lens capsule appears wrinkled. Lens-induced uveitis (inflammation within the eye) often occurs at this stage.

Nutrient rich eating. Dr Fuhrman


https://www.drfuhrman.com

 

 

Nutrient rich eating

 Joel Fuhrman is an American celebrity doctor who advocates what he calls a "micronutrient-rich diet". His practice is based on his nutrition-based approach to obesity and chronic disease, also referred to as a nutritarian or restrictive diet, as well as promoting his products and books.

 

 Notable work: Eat to Live; The End of Diabetes; Eat for Health: Lose Weight; Keep It Off and Look Younger; Live Longer

 

 

Fuhrman has advocated eating at least one pound of raw vegetables and another pound of cooked vegetables each day with an emphasis on green vegetables along with beans, onions, mushrooms, berries, nuts and seeds. He also recommends eating at least one cup of beans a day to benefit from the resistant starch and increased satiety.[13] The Nutritarian diet does not allow dairy products, animal products, snacks between meals, fruit juice, oils or processed foods

Some dieticians dispute his claims
