Use of grid keratotomy for the treatment of indolent corneal ulcer in a llama.

Meredyth L Jones1, Margi A Gilmour, Robert N Streeter.   

Abstract

A case of indolent corneal ulcer in a llama (Llama glama) is described. Diagnostic testing included a complete ophthalmic examination with corneal cytologic and histopathologic examination. Successful management involved grid keratotomy and topical application of neomycin-polymixin-bacitracin and atropine 1% ointments. Weekly follow-up examinations are described until healing was considered complete.
