Unfortunately there is no cure, it is the effect of aging..There may be some supplements you can put her on, but you would have to talk to your vet about that..Surgery is the only option for cataracts same as with humans..Good luck to you and your dog..

Question by Emily: is there anyway to cure baby sugar glider cataracts?
Yesterday i saw my baby glider Mira had white spots in her eyes, which must have occured yesterday or the day before. I soon found out it was cataracts (thanks to helpful yahoo users) and is there anyway at all to save this poor gliders sight?!?!?!

Goodness, I’m sorry about your girl! I’ve never experienced cataracts in any of my animals (five of them are sugar gliders). I think a vet visit is in order, if at all possible… That’s probably your best hope.

Also, for some in depth advice I’d recommend going to this forum: http://www.sugarglider.net – there are so many helpful glider owners there, you’re bound to get more educated responses.

Good luck with her!

Question by Dad: Having problems with seeing halos in my vision. What did your doctor cure yours with?
I’ve visited my eye specialist for seeing halos in my vision… The halos are easily seen when looking at street-lights and from upcoming vehicle headlamps…

I’ve been seeing halos now for the past 2 months, and even with treatment I’m not noticing improvement.

I am on two medication:

1. Alphagan

2. Omnipred

My eye specialist tested me for cataract, glaucoma and other possible causes for seeing halos, but all test results were negative.

When the halos come on strong, my vision become extremely blurry and sensitive — so sensitive that they feel like they are going to blank out…

I do have eye floaters, which is not correctable. But I never used to see halos in my vision.

I want to hear from you.
Dad
