@theveteyeguy: Corneal diamond burrs have their uses. While it’s not a technically hard procedure, it is hard to know WHEN to use a diamond burrs Most common uses: 👁️ Indolent ulcer - a SUPERFICIAL ulcer lasting longer than a week with epithelial lipping. 👁️ Calcific corneal degeneration - chalky, superficial, white corneal material in a geriatric dog that is actively ulcerated and painful. When not to use it: 🚫 If you’re not sure - better safe than sorry 🚫 Ulcers with stromal loss - could be infected. Don’t do it. 🚫 Stromal calcium deposits - the burr can’t reach anything past anterior stroma. Questions? #veterinarian #veterinary #ophthalmology #pets #veterinarymedicine
