What is Collie Eye Anomaly?
Collie Eye Anomaly (CEA) is a hereditary eye condition affecting the retina, choroid, and optic nerve. It is commonly found in Collies and other herding breeds.
Symptoms and Diagnosis of CEA
Some dogs have mild cases with no noticeable symptoms, while severe cases can lead to blindness. Diagnosis is confirmed through an eye examination and genetic testing.
Can CEA Be Treated?
There is no cure, but mild cases may not affect vision significantly. Responsible breeding practices help reduce the prevalence of this condition.
