Glaucoma Health Survey
The Kennel Club in conjunction with the BVA are running a survey to learn more about whether dogs who have undergone gonioscopy screening have gone on to develop glaucoma later in life. Owners of dogs that have been screened using the BVA/KC eye scheme may have already received information about this survey in an email from the Kennel Club (many thanks if you have already completed the survey). For those who have not already received information about the surveyand have had dogs screened using gonioscopy, the online survey form is available via this link: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/BVA_KCgonioscopy
