Abstract

The eye is a sensory organ sensitive to external factors, infections, and metabolic disorders, and eye diseases have a very important place among surgical diseases. This study aimed to report the distribution of eye diseases encountered in cats brought to Dicle University Veterinary Faculty Hospital in the last 4 years (2020-2023) and to contribute to veterinary practice. The study material consisted of 291 cats of different ages, genders and breeds diagnosed with eye disease, brought to Dicle University Veterinary Faculty Animal Hospital between January 2020 and September 2023. Following the history of the cats, a detailed eye examination was performed and the diagnosed eye problem was recorded. In the cats included in the study, conjunctivitis (21.15%), keratitis (19.59%), corneal ulcer (14.09%), keratoconjunctivitis sicca (9.62%), glaucoma (3.44%), uveitis (4.12%), iris staphyloma (4.12%), symblepharon (3.78%), panophthalmitis (3.44%), corneal necrosis (3.09%), nictitans protrusion into the membrane (1.72%), chemosis (1.72%), entropion (1.37%), cataract (1.03%), hypopion (0.69%), proptosis (0.34%), local retinal detachment (0.34%) and dermoid cyst (0.34%) were seen. As a result, conjunctiva and corneal diseases were commonly encountered in cats. In order to prevent visual impairment, it is important not to neglect routine eye examinations and to diagnose and treat diseases early.

Özet

Göz, dış etkenlere, enfeksiyonlara, metabolik bozukluklara duyarlı bir duyu organıdır ve göz hastalıkları cerrahi hastalıklar içerisinde önemli bir yere sahiptir. Bu çalışmada Dicle Üniversitesi Veteriner Fakültesi Hastanesine son 4 yıl içinde (2020-2023) getirilen kedilerde karşılaşılan göz hastalıklarının dağılımını bildirmek ve veteriner pratiğe katkı sağlamak amaçlandı. Çalışma materyalini Ocak 2020 ile Eylül 2023 yılları arasında Dicle Üniversitesi Veteriner Fakültesi Hayvan Hastanesi getirilen göz hastalığı teşhisi konan farklı yaş, cinsiyet ve ırktaki 291 kedi oluşturdu. Anamnezi takiben kedilerin detaylı göz muayeneleri yapıldı ve teşhis edilen göz problemi kayıt altına alındı. Çalışma kapsamına alınan kedilerde konjunktivitis (%21.15), keratitis (%19.59), kornea ülseri (%14.09), keratokonjunktivitis sikka (%9.62), glokom (%3.44), uveitis (%4.12), iris stafilomu (%4.12), simbleferon (%3.78), panoftalmi (%3.44), kornea nekrozu (%3.09), membrana niktitans protrüzyonu (%1.72), şemozis (%1.72), entropion (%1.37), katarakt (%1.03), hipopion (%0.69), proptozis (%0.34), lokal retinal ayrılma (%.34) ve kist dermoid (%0.34) vakaları görüldü. Sonuç olarak kedilerde yaygın olarak konjunktiva ve kornea hastalıkları ile karşılaşıldı. Görme işlevinin bozulmaması için rutin göz muayenelerinin aksatılmaması, hastalıkların erken tanı ve tedavisinin yapılması önemlidir.
