In the past 10 years, information about South American camelid anatomy, physiology, medicine, and surgery has increased exponentially, including information about the eye. Although trauma-related diseases are the most common eye problems for which camelids are presented to veterinarians, there have recently been many anecdotal reports and published case reports of camelids having ocular malignancies and potentially hereditary ocular abnormalities. The increased number of ocular diseases being reported may be because of increased recognition of camelid diseases or an increase in these diseases as a result of restricted gene pools as a consequence of inbreeding. As the popularity of camelids is steadily increasing, owners are becoming more knowledgeable about their animals, and there is more need for veterinarians who understand their ocular anatomy, physiology, disease susceptibility, and recommended treatments. This article provides the relevant information about the eye.
在过去的 10 年中，有关南美的骆驼科动物解剖学、生理学、医学和外科学的信息呈指数级增长，其中包括眼部的信息。虽然与创伤相关的疾病是骆驼科动物就诊兽医时最常见的眼部问题，但最近有很多关于骆驼科动物眼部恶性肿瘤和潜在遗传性眼部异常的偶发病例报告和已发表的病例报告。报告的眼部疾病数量增加的原因可能是由于对骆驼科动物疾病的认识增加，或者由于近亲繁殖导致基因库受限，从而导致这些疾病的增加。随着骆驼科动物的普及度稳步上升，主人对他们的动物了解更多，因此需要更多了解它们的眼部解剖结构、生理学、疾病易感性和推荐治疗方法的兽医。本文提供了有关眼部的相关信息。
