I own a 13 year old whippet named Ana. She is in good health but is going blind. It is not caused by aging but by too much time in the sun. I have been told that hounds go blind sooner if they are in the sun a lot; especially if they are on boats. We had a boat the first five years of Ana's life and so she is now going blind. There are doggles which can be purchased and the specialist I took her to showed me pictures of dogs with doggles. So now she wears them when she is in the sun.

I would like to find out if someone out there knows of any vet anywhere who has operated on dogs with damaged irises and cornea problems.

If you can help, please e-mail me since I want to give Ana back some of her sight. She is the only dog I have ever owned since I am very allergic to dogs but Ana is very clean and has no dander.

Thank you from my heart.
