Australian Shepherd, Basenji, Pembroke Welsh Corgi, and Dalmatian require an examination before AND after dilation.  Their exam is $55.

Day of Clinic Fees:

$55

$60 for Australian Shepherds, Basenji, Pembroke Welsh Corgis, and Dalmatian.

OFA Forms will be available from Dr. Greentree at the clinic.  You need to bring the following for each dog to be examined: AKC Registration Number & Microchip Number.

Eye exams take roughly 5 minutes.  Please plan to show up at least 15-20 minutes before your scheduled appointment to have your dog’s eyes dilated with the drops.

*Planning your appointment time: A dog’s pupils start constricting again within 2-3 hours after drops.  Dog’s with later ring times should be examined first thing in the morning.  Pupil dilation does not affect the vision in dogs like it does in humans because they do not accommodate (use the muscle in the iris to fine focus their vision).  It can make dogs a little light sensitive until the pupil can constrict some which is more of a concern at outdoor shows in sunny days.
