Expert Pet Eye Care & Ophthalmic Surgery in Clarkson, WA
Ophthalmic – Caring for Your Pet’s Vision
At The Veterinary Hospital North in Clarkson, WA, we offer dedicated ophthalmic care for pets, servicing the surrounding areas with compassion and clinical expertise. Your pet’s eyesight is a vital part of their overall health and wellbeing, and when problems arise, they can be painful and impact daily life. That’s why our experienced veterinarians are fully equipped to diagnose and treat a wide range of eye conditions in dogs and cats—from minor irritations to more serious issues like glaucoma or corneal ulcers.
Comprehensive Eye Exams for Pets
When it comes to your pet’s eyes, early diagnosis can make all the difference. Our team uses specialised tools like ophthalmoscopes, fluorescein dye, and tonometers to carry out thorough eye examinations. These allow us to assess everything from corneal damage and eye pressure to breed-related conditions. We also offer eye health checks for breeding dogs to ensure their vision is healthy and clear.
Common Diagnostic Tools We Use:
- Ophthalmoscope – to see inside the eye
- Fluorescein dye – to detect corneal scratches or ulcers
- Tonometer – to test for glaucoma
Surgical Eye Treatments Tailored to Your Pet
While many eye issues can be treated with medication, some conditions require surgical intervention. Our fully equipped surgical suite and skilled team enable us to perform a wide range of ophthalmic procedures to restore comfort and protect your pet’s vision. We always assess each case thoroughly and explain your options clearly.
Some of the Eye Surgeries We Offer Include:
- Enucleation (eye removal for severe cases)
- Entropion and ectropion correction (for eyelid abnormalities)
- Eyelid tumour removal
- Cherry eye surgery
- Corneal ulcer repairs
Specialist Referrals for Complex Eye Conditions

We’re committed to providing a clear diagnosis and a treatment plan that’s in the best interest of your pet, whether that’s in-house or through a specialist referral.
