Check these glaucoma symptoms to diagnose your dog.
Any of the following symptoms in one or both eyes, even if the symptoms are temporary, can indicate glaucoma:
- glassiness to eye
- redness in the white part of eye
- cloudiness of the eye
- excessive tearing (weeping)
- sensitivity to light
- green or yellow eye discharge
- bluish cast to eye
- dilated pupil
- desire for excessive sleeping irritability
- behavior that indicates pain (hiding under the bed, acting frightened, avoiding being petted on the head)
- behavior indicating vision impairment (bumping into things)
- enlarged and bulging eyeball (late stage)
Don't ignore mere behavioral signs; take any and all symptoms seriously and seek veterinary medical attention.
