Most common questions used to investigate

Does your dog exhibit clumsy behavior (e.g., bumping into objects, tripping, falling)?

Does your dog have decreased or absent menace response (i.e., does not blink when a hand is waved toward the eyes)?

Does your dog have impaired visual placing responses (e.g., extends the paws incorrectly when trying to approach a nearby surface)?

Common conclusions

Your dog doesn't show any common symptom of a blind quiet eye. The blind quiet eye is the loss of vision in one or both eyes without ocular vascular injection or other apparent signs of eye inflammation.

Your dog shows one common symptom of a blind quiet eye. You will need to give a thorough history of your dog’s health and the onset and nature of the symptoms to the veterinarian. He or she will perform a complete physical examination as well as a biochemistry profile, urinalysis, complete blood count to rule out potential systemic causes of the disease.

Hi! I’m Sreten Filipović. I graduated from the Faculty of Agriculture at the University of Belgrade, with a master's degree in Environmental Protection in Agricultural Systems. I’ve worked as a researcher at Finland's Natural Resources Institute (LUKE) on a project aimed at adapting south-western Finland to drought episodes. I founded a consulting agency in the field of environment and agriculture to help farmers who want to implement the principles of sustainability on their farms. I’m also a founding member of the nonprofit organization Ecogenesis from Belgrade whose main goal is non-formal education on the environment and ecology. In my spare time, I like to write blog posts about sustainability, the environment, animal farming, horticulture, and plant protection. I’ve also published several science-fiction short stories.
