| Abstract: | Conjunctivitis and blepharospasm were observed in a litter of four, 2-week-old New Zealand white rabbits. Corneal opacity and neovascularization of the cornea and entropion of the upper eyelids were observed when the rabbits were examined 10 weeks later. Conjunctival cultures of these rabbits yielded normal bacterial flora. Treatment with a steroid-antibiotic ophthalmic ointment did not alter the ocular abnormalities. Surgical correction of the entropion resulted in a complete regression of all clinical signs. |
