Surgical Correction of Unilateral Congenital Crypthophthalmos in a Lutino Cockatiel (Nymphicus hollandicus)
Abstract
A 3-year-old Lutino Cockatiel (Nymphicus hollandicus) of unknown sex was referred to the clinics of our faculty for ocular examination due to lack of the upper and lower eyelids of the right eye since birth has been reported in this study. After anamnesis and detailed ocular examination (ocular ultrasound), congenital cryptophthalmos was diagnosed and the right palpebral fissure of the bird was corrected by a successful surgical procedure. This report provides the clinical features and surgical management of the variant of cryptophthalmos in birds.
