Farm animals (cattle, sheep, alpacca, llama, goats, pigs) may be affected by a number of eye conditions, where consultation by the veterinary ophthalmologist is indicated. Some diseases affect only one animal, while other diseases (infectious or inherited) may be a flock problem.

Individual animals may be seen at the Animal Eye Clinic in Medford, New Jersey. Larger farm animals are most commonly examined on the farm.

• Nubian goats and sheep commonly are affected with entropion (rolling of the eyelid- resulting in corneal irritation).
• Cattle are commonly affected with: squamous cell carcinoma (cancer eye), uveitis (inflammation in the eye), keratoconjunctivitis (pink eye), inherited diseases (including cataract and strabismus).
• Alpacca/Llama: may be affected with a number of conditions, but are most commonly seen for inherited ocular disease such as cataract.
