Goldens are predisposed to cataracts, like are often seen in older humans, and they can usually be easily seen. "Cataracts often occur from disease, old age, or trauma to the eye," Dr. Sarno said. "If you notice your dog's eyes are looking cloudy, it might be time to see a vet. Surgery can be performed so the cataract doesn't slip from the tissue that holds it in place." Treatments can also include oral supplements or eye drops. Though cataracts can cause poor vision or blindness, a dog can still continue to live a happy life!
