1069888 tn?1421936741 m up, the blood settles toward the bottom of my eye and the little blur (like having an eye goobie) goes away. Both times have been on the outside of my left eye. Both mornings I woke up with the really bad pressure and stiffness in the back of my head/neck (where it all swells up). Not as much a headache though... this is more localized where head and neck fit together. (Very typical for me, btw!) Just wondering if any of you have had this and what the cause was.
Avatar n tn I have a five year old quarter horse that I suspect has an eye problem. My horse tends to hit her head on objects, and spooks very easily. A friend of mine noticed that the right eye tends to shift up and down about three times, also see the white of her eye, when the horse looks at something. I wanted to know what tests could be performed to diagnose eye problems. If it is Amblyopia what can be done about it?
Avatar m tn A swollen sheath can be due to several different factors. First of all, many horse have very large sheaths due to fat collection in this area so if the problem has been present for a while and is slowly getting worse, it could just be fat, especially if he is fat in other places. Other causes would be tumors in the prepuce or on the penis or infection in the area. I would rec. contacting your vet to sedate the horse and do a complete exam of the area.

1878647 tn?1320571734 My left eyeball actually feels swollen. It's not visible, but I touch it, and I feel the difference. I don't get a sharp pain at the top of it, but more like a bruise or a Charley Horse. Usually, I try to keep myself in the dark when that happened before, but now, I'm a freshman in college with essays and homework which demand light and the computer. I usually dull the screen, but lately, it has not been helping.
Avatar n tn I am 54 and have been wearing glasses since I was 6 years old. I horse back ride and two days ago my horse gave a huge buck, some horses can get very excitable in the spring weather, luckily I did not fall off but both feet came out of my stirups at the same time and I do have a sore left shoulder from the jerk. Could this have contributed to my left eye now having a tear? I am schuedule for surgery tomorrow morning and will ask the surgeon, however, I would like another opion as well.
Avatar f tn Is there discharge coming from his eye? You did good cleaning his eye out with an eye wash, hopefully the eye was was made for horses, the best thing to use is saline. It sounds like he may be going blind in that eye, or has been blind in it for a while. I would suggest trying to find a way to have your vet come out. It isn't very wise to purchase animals when you cannot afford to properly care for them, thats including medical care.

When was the last time you had his teeth floated? If it were food related, perhaps he could not chew properly and experienced a bit of a choke? Please let us know how he is now and if you have any further questions.

Have you any suggestions.
Avatar f tn I decided to just leave it be after that and went back to bed. When I woke up in the morning my eye was almost swollen shut.

Avatar n tn Hi, My 18 month old son when was at home after having the food started itching both eyes. After few minute we saw that both his eye lids are swollen.There is no red-eye, but eye lid is swollen. It is bit itchy, but my son is playful and not crying.

Can you please guide me what this could be related to and can we take some eye drops ?
Avatar m tn He normally will have a little eye redness after being groomed but when my husband brought him him I was shocked. The whole membrane around his eye was red and swollen. I posted a picture on facwbook and I have a friend who is a groomer and use to work for a vet and said this looked like it came from being choked by the harness. It is not cherry eye since that is in the corner of the eye. Could this have come from being choked?

Avatar n tn Hi, The past few years I have had this problem after I touch metal shopping carts or even the metal water faucet at a horse barn ( I'm guessing it has to be that). My hands itch extremely bad and begin to swell instantly and the swelling spreads up my arm. The past few times it has happened the severity is higher and the episodes last longer. Also it is becoming more frequent. Would this be an allergy or some type of deficiency ?Thank you.

Avatar m tn Iv had a horse accident and my right eye is damaged. The lid is completely closed as the 3 nerves have been damaged.

Will my lid go up with time? 4. Will my eye move as before?
