Our question this week was:Dr. Jon - My 3 year old dog has cataracts on both eyes. The eye specialist confirmed that he would need an operation to remove the cataracts. Recently I came across a website promoting some eye drops which claimed that the cataracts can eventually be removed with some success. The brand is Ethos Endymion Bright Eyes Drops for Pet Cataracts, which contain N-Acetyl-Carnosine. In your opinion do you recommend it?
Vince OngAnswerHi – thanks for your email Vince. Your question was – have I had experience with Ethos Endymion Bright Eyes Drops for Pet Cataracts. The answer is no. I called a friend that is a veterinary ophthalmologist to ask if they recommended this treatment and they said that they did not. I'd recommend going with what you eye specialist recommends.
