Disease Description: A condition where the third eyelid is protruding.
Inherit Mode: It has not been proven that this condition is inherited, but dogs of the breeds listed below are predisposed.
Disease Symptom: Both conditions cause chronic irritation of the conjunctiva and cornea, and if untreated, can lead to keratoconjunctivitis sicca.
Disease Cause: -
Disease Diagnose: Both conditions generally occur in younger dogs and are readily diagnosed from the appearance of the eye. In cherry eye, the glandular tissue protruding behind the third eyelid may be markedly swollen and inflamed. It must be distinguished from a tumour of the third eyelid, which is rare.

The gland itself mustnotbe removed, as inadequate tear production will result causing keratoconjunctivitis sicca. eversion of cartilage:The abnormal folded cartilage is removed surgically.
Breeder Advice: It is preferable not to breed dogs that have developed these conditions.
