About dog glaucoma

Bulging eye, cloudiness, pain

Glaucoma occurs when the fluid inside the eye cannot drain properly, causing intraocular pressure to rise. It is one of the few eye conditions in dogs that is genuinely time-sensitive — early veterinary attention matters.

🔴

Urgent visible signs

Bluish-grey cloudiness over the cornea, a visibly enlarged or bulging eyeball, prominent red blood vessels in the white of the eye, and signs of pain such as squinting, lethargy, or reduced appetite.

Why speed matters

Elevated intraocular pressure can damage the optic nerve rapidly. Dogs presenting with acute glaucoma symptoms should be seen by a veterinarian the same day — this is an urgent condition.

🐕

Breeds at higher risk

Cocker Spaniel, Basset Hound, Chow Chow, Shar Pei, and Siberian Husky have documented genetic predisposition. Basset Hounds and Cocker Spaniels are particularly at risk in India.
