Watch Alison Clode, D.V.M, Diplomate ACVO provide a detailed and informative guide on how to perform an opto exam on horses.
She’ll discuss how to block motor cap sensation with a palpebral nerve block and a frontal block, which is crucial in determining the presence of any tear film deficiencies. Dr. Clode also discusses the clinical signs to look for in horses with such deficiencies, such as ocular discharge or redness.
In addition to these techniques, Dr. Clode provides valuable insights on the use of sedation during opto exams. She highlights the situations where it may be necessary to achieve a more thorough examination of the eye, such as when dealing with a particularly anxious horse or when examining an area that is difficult to reach. The speaker also provides tips on how to properly administer sedation to ensure the safety of both the horse and the practitioner.
Furthermore, the video covers a variety of tools that can be used during an opto exam.
