Recently, an 8-month-old puppy wearing glasses sparked heated discussions among netizens. According to the owner of the puppy, due to vision problems, the puppy often bumps into furniture when walking, misidentifies its owner, and even has to lie on the ground for a long time to find food.He took him to the pet hospital for examination and found that the puppy was highly myopic, so he decided to spend 800 yuan on custom-made glasses for him.
After putting on the glasses, the puppy gradually adapted from tilting its head in confusion at the beginning, and was finally able to clearly see the world around it, wagging its tail excitedly.
The owner said that although it cost a lot of money, it was worth it to see it jumping back to life.
According to an eye study, dogs do suffer from myopia.
A study of 118 pet dogs found that with age and increased hardening of the lens nucleus, the risk of dogs developing significant myopia (>1.5D) increased significantly.
In addition, naturally occurring myopia has also been found in breeds such as Labrador Retrievers. However, although myopia is not common in pets, timely intervention can indeed effectively improve their quality of life.
