A 5-year-old intact male Yorkshire terrier dog was referred with a 1-week history of blindness. In both eyes, menace responses and pupillary light reflexes were absent. The indirect ophthalmoloscopy revealed multiple small gray-white and discoloration lesion in mid-nontapetum area in both eyes. Electroretinograms showed diminished amplitude of a- and b-waves. Multifocal serous retinal detachments were detected with optical coherence tomography (OCT) over the small gray-white and discoloration lesion in the fundus. After one week of treatments, the indirect ophthalmoloscopy showed that irregular patches and hyperpigmentation in the center of hyperreflectivity area. Reattachment and retinal thinning were observed by the OCT. The results indicate that OCT scanning is considered to be a useful method for retinal evaluation in dogs with chorioretinitis.

To report retinal image of in a 6-year-old male castrated poodle dog with a 2-month history of nyctalopia using optical coherence tomography (OCT). Ocular reflexes were present in both eyes and slit lamp examination showed anterior subscapular cataract in the right eye. There were fundus abnormalities in both eyes similar to retinal degeneration. Scotopic electroretinograms (ERGs) revealed significantly subabnormal amplitudes and prolonged implicit time, whereas photopic ERGs were better maintained, although far from normal. OCT of affected dogs revealed generalized retinal thinning much more than a normal age-matched dog. Therefore, OCT scanning is considered to be a useful method for retinal evaluation in dogs with retinal degeneration.

This study aimed to confirm the effects that the mobile phone has on Electroretinogram (ERG). The ERG responses of three groups of healthy dogs, five in each group, were studied. ERG test was performed consecutively before and after the mobile phone was carried out. For group A, music was played with the sound on; for group B, music was played but the sound off; and for group C, the phone was set on the airplane mode. In the presence of a mobile phone, the amplitudes of a- and b-wave were increased in all groups. The a- and b-wave amplitudes at the flash intensity of 3,000 mcd·s/㎡ were significantly increased in all groups (p < 0.05). Based on the results, it is recommended to conduct ERG test in the absence of a mobile phone for the accurate evaluation of the retinal function.

This study was performed to evaluate the effects of an intravitreal injection of cidofovir in beagle dogs. Nine beagle dogs (18 eyes) were used and randomly assigned to the following three groups of various dosages: 100, 500 and $1000{\mu}g$. Aqueous paracentesis was followed by an intravitreal injection of cidofovir. Intraocular pressure (IOP) was measured twice a week and electroretinography (ERG) and ophthalmoscopic examination were performed every week during the study. At the end of the study, all eyes were enucleated for histopathologic evaluation after euthanasia. The IOPs in the 500 and $1000{\mu}g$ groups were statistically lower than baseline with no significant IOP changes in the $100{\mu}g$ group. Reduced amplitudes of ERG recordings were identified in the eyes injected with higher dose groups than the $100{\mu}g$ group. Histopathologic examination revealed that there were dose-related toxicities to the ciliary body and the retina. These results suggest that intravitreal cidofovir had dose-dependent IOP lowering effects associated with ciliary body destruction, but had the potential to cause retinal toxicity in beagle dogs.

Cataracts occur commonly in older dogs, which can lead to partial or complete vision loss. In the present study, a 12-year-old male poodle presented for evaluation of ocular sinister (OS) cataract. This study was a clinical case report on the process of performing surgery using phacoemulsification (PHACO) and the problems that arise in patient diagnosed with OS cataract. In the oculus dexter (OD), the artificial eye was inserted because there was no electroretinography (ERG) response. In the OS, the ERG was 51.6 μV, so operation was performed because the visual pathway function remained. Slit-lamp biomicroscopy of the OS showed complete loss of vision as a hypermature cataract and that the lens was hardened. During the cataract surgery using PHACO, visco-elastic agents were used to maintain the shape of the eyeball, and the PHACO procedure took 3.13 minutes. The hardened lens and visco-elastic agents were removed from the eye through PHACO surgery, and the operation was completed by inserting an intraocular lens (IOL). As a result of managing IOP for 2 months after surgery, it remained stable at a maximum of 19 mmHg, and no postoperative ocular hypertension (POH) occurred. Currently, one year has passed since the operation, and the dog maintains its daily life with its left eye without any problems.

The objective of this retrospective study was to investigate the prevalence of retinal diseases in dogs presented to the Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital, Seoul National University from April 2004 to December 2005. Sixty-five dogs (120 eyes) with retinal diseases involving blindness were included in this study. Age, breed, and gender data for all breeds were collected from medical records documenting vision loss. Generalized progressive retinal atrophy (gPRA) was the most common manifestation. Other prevalent findings included sudden acquired retinal degeneration (SARD) and retinal detachment (RD). Bilateral gPRA was found in 32 dogs with a female-to-male ratio of 1 : 1. The mean $age{\pm}SD$ of all dogs in this group was $4.66{\pm}2.30$ years with a range of 3 to 12 years. Breeds with highest prevalence of gPRA were Miniature Schnauzer (24/32, $mean{\pm}SD$ age: $3.79{\pm}0.78$ yr) and Poodle (2/32, $6.50{\pm}0.71$ yr). Twelve dogs (24 eyes) were diagnosed with SARD bilateraly, ranging from 3 to 13 years of age ($mean{\pm}SD:\;6.91{\pm}2.61$ yr). There were no abnormalities in fundus of 11 dogs at presentation. Electroretinography (ERG) without anesthesia was performed in 7 dogs, and all response was totally extinguished. Retinal detachment was identified in 21 dogs (32 eyes): 11 bilateral and 10 unilateral (7 right eye, 3 left eye). The most common breed was Shih Tzu (15/21, $mean{\pm}SD$ age: $4.39{\pm}3.24$ yr). Four other breeds comprised the remaining 6 cases (8 eyes). The everall mean age of the group was: $4.18{\pm}2.89$ years (range 0.8 to 14 years) with a female-to-male ratio of 1 : 1.1 (10 females, and 11 males).

안저 출혈은 망막 조직과 혈관의 이상을 의미한다. 따라서 안과 의사는 안저의 출혈성 변화가 발생하면 이에 따른 치료 계획을 수립하기 위해 치료 전과 치료 중간, 치료 이후 등 병변의 진행상황을 파악하기 위해 여러 가지 안과 검사의 출혈 성 정도의 평가를 위해 오더를 지시한다. 현재 가장 유용하고 보편적인 안저검사에는 빛간섭단층촬영(OCT), 안저촬영(FP), 형광안저혈관조영술(FAG) 등이 있다. 중증 안저 출혈에 대한 치료 계획을 수립하기 위한 기존의 형광안저혈관조영술 검사에는 한계가 있다. 저자들은 광각형광혈관조영술을 이용하여 동공주위촬영과 5-quadrant 방법을 수행할 것을 제안한다. 이 방법을 사용하면 신속히 검사 부위를 결정하고 최대한 출혈의 반경을 피해 안과 의사에게 손상된 조직과 이상 혈관의 범위를 제공할 수 있다. 그런데도 불구하고 안과 의사가 안저 출혈이 매우 심각하여 광각형광혈관조영술이 무의미하다고 판단하는 경우가 있다. 이런 경우 대체검사로 안과초음파 및 망막전위도의 오더가 발생한다. 따라서 우리는 안 초음파 및 망막전위도 검사 필요성에 대해 당위성을 인정해야 하고, 정확하게 수행해야 한다.
