This course will offer practical training on common ophthalmic surgical procedures that can be carried out in first opinion small animal general practice.

The majority of the day will be spent ‘hands-on’ in cadaver based practical sessions where delegates will have the opportunity to gain confidence in these surgical procedures.

Topics to be covered include:

Eyelid wedge excision – to address eyelid masses, distichia clumps
Punch biopsy excision – to address ectopic cilia
Keratotomy / corneal burr debridement – to address non-healing ulcers in dogs
