What it is
Entropion
Entropion is a condition where the eyelids of a pet invert and the hair or fur around the eyes comes in contact with the surface of the cornea. This can cause corneal ulcerations, perforations and/or scarring. Entropion has many causes. Some are inherited due to the particular breed but can also be caused by systemic dermatological conditions, infectious eyelid diseases or trauma/injury. Evaluation with a board certified veterinary ophthalmologist can assure the proper surgical timing and technique are utilized for correction and your pet's comfort.
