No glaucoma, no Cataracts, no M.S….

Nope. Brain scan was normal, so was retina scan, so was looking into the eye itself.

Ok, first of all the cataract did not come from being hit by a car. I hope you took him to the vets when that happened. What are the signs of a cataract? It has nothing to do with being hit by a car, or age. Actually, I think in dogs the pupil (black part of the eye) will be gray or bluish in color. The surgery cost will depend on the vet and how much he charges. You should call around to your local vets and find out how much they charge. You may have to take him to a specialist for that surgery possibly at a veterinary college. Also, make sure the price they give you is the total cost of the surgery and not just the surgery alone with everything else added on to it like room and board, anesthesia, food, medications etc.

I had a vet screw me like that once. He told me the surgery for my cat would be $ 100. Well when I went to pick up the cat they handed me a bill for almost $ 400! Yes, the surgery was only $ 100, but it didn’t include everything else like food, medications etc. Needless to say, I never went back, even though I had been going there since they opened up for business. In fact, he screwed so many customers that he almost went out of business.

I have a cataract growing on one of my eyes. It’s like a cloudy film growing over the lens. An easy operation when it is ripe can replace the cloudy lens with a clear new plastic one.
