So - our Ellie developed glaucoma shortly after we adopted her and it's become uncomfortable/painful for her and she's nearly completely blind now. Medications weren't able to get the pressure in her eyes to a normal level and we're looking at a $2000 procedure to make her eyes stop building pressure. (producing internal fluid)   It's called Intravitreal Gentamicin Injection.  

The doctor says it has an 80% chance of success with Ellie - which is higher than many dogs he sees. Our other option are eye removal or partial removal/ocular implants.  Both of which are even more expensive. 

 

YAY!!!  I've had her for 6 months.  Is there a lemon law on these things?!!   (J/K)
