Animal Eye Institute of Northern Kentucky

While primarily focused on ophthalmology, we may utilize digital X-rays for preoperative assessments of orbital fractures, foreign bodies, or systemic conditions affecting eye health. Our advanced imaging supports comprehensive patient care.

We use ultrasound imaging (ocular ultrasound) to evaluate the posterior segment of the eye, assess retinal detachments, intraocular masses, or lens luxations. This non-invasive tool aids in surgical planning and diagnosis.

We provide Eye Pressure Testing as part of our comprehensive ophthalmic examinations to diagnose glaucoma or monitor intraocular pressure in dogs, cats, and other species. Early detection helps prevent vision loss and manage eye health effectively.

We provide hospitalization and 24-hour monitoring for patients requiring overnight care post-surgery or those with acute ophthalmic conditions. Our team ensures continuous assessment of intraocular pressure, recovery from anesthesia, and overall stability.

We provide oxygen therapy as part of perioperative care to support patients undergoing complex eye surgeries or those with respiratory compromise. This ensures optimal healing and recovery during hospitalization.

We administer IV fluid therapy for patients requiring hydration, electrolyte balance, or stabilization before/during surgical procedures. This is critical for maintaining systemic health during anesthesia and recovery.

We offer comprehensive pain management strategies tailored to ophthalmic surgeries, including preemptive analgesia, postoperative medications, and monitoring to ensure patient comfort and a smooth recovery.

We conduct quality of life assessments for patients with chronic eye conditions to guide treatment plans or end-of-life care discussions. This holistic approach prioritizes your pet’s comfort and well-being.
