Cherry Eye Or
Prolapsed Tear Gland
A cherry eye is the prolapse of the tear gland within the third eyelid. Unlike humans who have 2 eyelids, dogs and cats have 3. The third one appears from the inner corner of the eye and covers the eye diagonally. This third eyelid contains a gland, the lacrimal gland that produces 30% of the total tears to help lubricate the eye and keep it healthy.
When the gland becomes loose, it protrudes from the eyelid and is referred to as a cherry eye. Please click on the button below to be directed to directions on how to care for your pet at home, following surgery.
