Ocular trauma, infection, and disease can lead to some of the most expensive and devastating conditions in horses. Equine veterinarians treating sport, work or show horses must be well-versed in the diagnosis and field treatment of eye conditions to ensure the safety and athletic potential of horses under their care.

Attendees will practice cutting-edge treatment techniques during one day of rotating wet labs at the North Carolina State University College of Veterinary Medicine
