About this episode

This episode provides practical ophthalmology tips for veterinary professionals to handle eye problems effectively.

Eye problems can stump even seasoned GPs, but they don't have to. On this episode of Vet Blast Podcast, host Adam Christman, DVM, MBA, sits down with veterinary ophthalmologist Kenneth Pierce, DVM, MS, DACVO, for a crash course in everyday ophthalmology. How do you tell cataracts from nuclear sclerosis in seconds? What's the smartest way to triage a corneal ulcer? And which red flags mean "emergency" the moment they walk through the door? Pierce breaks it all down with practical, step-by-step guidance you can use in clinic tomorrow.
