diffuse corneal edema
the cornea is not transparent and you cannot see the iris .
What is corneal edema called if it is because of ENDOthelial injury?
Corneal Endothelial dystrophy
can be inheritied , old age change, it is bilaterally symmetrical to diffuse opacity, degenreation of unknow cause
What is a virus that causes diffuse corneal edema?

Cataracts, most common disease of the lens, seen in response to injury of the lens. Opacity is just in the lens you can still see the iris .
Swelling and degeneration of lenticular fibers-> opacity.
What is retinal detachment?
Seperation between the neural and pigmented layers
Two types of retinal detachment?
- Exudative- exudate accumulates in retinal space. Hemorrhage, neoplasm, choroiditis, retinitis
- Tractional fibrous adhesions between cilary bodies . Cyclitic membrane usually due to inflammation

What is primary glaucoma?
Goniodysgenesis- malformation of trabecular meshwork , inheritied in dogs
Causes of secondary glaucoma?
Anything that obstructs the pupil or trabecular network, inflammation , lens, luxation. posterior synechia, peripheral anterior syncheia
What is posterior synechia?
When the iris sticks to the lens
What is peripheral anterior synechia?
Iris sticks to cornea
