Eye diseases

I. Read the text using vocabulary

to cure - лечить

ointment - мазь

eyelid - веко

irritation - раздражение

eyeball – глазное яблоко

to spread infection – распространять инфекцию

pimple – угорь, прыщ

Eye infection

If eyes get an infection, yellow matter might be seen coming from the eye. This can often be cured easily with eye ointment from the pharmacy. The matter might be a sign of something else, though, like worms, ticks, fleas or a cold. Wipe the matter off the eyes with wet cotton wool or soft tissue. Use a separate tissue for each eye to prevent the spread of infection.

It could also be caused by an irritation. Peel back the eyelids to see if there is a hair growing towards the eyeball, or a small growth like a pimple. A small op can save years of irritation and possible loss of sight.

Blindness

There are many eye illnesses that affect dogs. You can test his eyesight by moving your hand at each side of his head to see if he notices the movement. Some dogs become "night blind" and they cannot see well at night. This may be caused by damage to the retina. It sometimes progresses to total blindness. Always place the food dishes in the same spot so the dog can find them. Blind dogs can live a happy, contented life in a familiar environment.
