Journal Article
Goncalves, C., Oliver, J., Kafarnik, C., Garnett, K., Rushton, J., Stravinskaite, V., Everson, R., Tee, F., Escribano-Bermejo, B., Tzouganakis, I., Lacerda, R., Pearce, I., & Fricker, G. (2024). Treatment outcome of spontaneous chronic corneal epithelial defects in brachycephalic dogs comparing Boxers and non-Boxers: A retrospective multicenter study of 420 dogs. Veterinary Ophthalmology, https://doi.org/10.1111/vop.13269

Objective: To compare characteristics and treatment outcomes of spontaneous chronic corneal epithelial defects (SCCEDs) in brachycephalic non-Boxers and Boxers. We hypothesized that brachycephalic non-Boxers develop SCCEDs at a younger age and develo...
