   What is a cataract in a dog's eye?

   • Inside each of your dog's eyes is a transparent, glass-like disc called a lens. The lens focuses images onto the retina (the back of the eye), helping your dog see clearly. A cataract is a cloudy patch that develops inside this lens. Cataracts block images from entering the eye, causing blurry vision and, if severe, can lead to blindness.
