Cane Corso Cherry Eye Explained: Surgery Options

In this video, we will be discussing one of the common health issues that can affect Cane Corsos - cherry eye. We will explain what cherry eye is and the various surgical options available to correct this condition.
Cherry eye is a condition that occurs when the gland in the third eyelid of a dog becomes swollen and protrudes, resembling a cherry. It can be uncomfortable for the dog and may lead to secondary issues if left untreated.
Surgical options for cherry eye in Cane Corsos include imbrication, removing the gland entirely, or tucking/tacking the gland down to prevent it from protruding again. Each option comes with its own set of risks and benefits, so it is important to consult with a veterinarian to determine the best course of action for your pet.

My little dog had surgery last Wednesday it didn’t go well dr. Said it was too big, now wants to try to shrink with drops . I wonder w hy she didn’t try that first before surgery botch. Are they getting g commissions on surgery’s I’m in Houston TX

[@EncounterCaneCorso]

That’s a good question and one that will evoke a lot of passionate responses. I’ll just say that it’s imperative to not take everyone’s opinions, including doctors, as gospel. Everyone has their own agenda and often your needs aren’t their priority. Research, then make a decision that you can live with. Thanks for watching the video. 😎

Well my dog didn't have any surgery since he's been with me BUT one thing I am so upset about is that the place I adopted him from had him neutered at only 5 months, if I would have met him sooner and adopted him sooner, I would leave him intact.

[@EncounterCaneCorso]

In my experience it has never helped with aggression and really shouldn’t be done before the dog reach’s maturity. It’s an outdated notion that all male dogs must be neutered. Appreciate your comment 😎

Where in Houston did you go. I live here and have a 3 month old cane Corso and his eye is like this and I want it removed.

[@KarenCampbell-lz9sg]

Don’t remove sets them up for further eye infection due to dry eye see if they can tuck it back in use lots of systayn eye drops to soothe

[@EncounterCaneCorso]

Please make sure you understand the risks involved with any procedure you choose. Outcomes vary depending on the variables described in the video. Everyone has their own opinion. We went to Eartrim located near Houston. Appreciate you watching and good luck with your decision.

I had a Cane Corso she would get this usually in hot weather and when playing a lot, this usually happens when more blood flow happens to the head of my cane Corso. I’d stop playing with her and rub and slightly push it back in, I’d walk her and small amounts of strenuous activity for the next couple of days, but it pop up around 7 times in her lifetime. she died from an enlarged valve in her heart at the age of 5.

[@truthtalker7774]

How is your dog recovering? Any signs of reduced tear production?

[@EncounterCaneCorso]

She’s doing great. It’s been a month and no negative issues to report. We’re watching her closely. Thanks for asking. 😎

[@Madison_Sacha]

Hey there thanks for posting this! My 7 mo old great dane has a cherry eye and I am in San Antonio. Steroid drops didn't work. 😢 could you recommend your vet? How is your dog doing ?

[@EncounterCaneCorso]

@@Madison_Sacha Eartrim is the name of the clinic. It’s near Houston. They are absolutely the best. Our girl is doing excellent. No signs of dry eye whatsoever.

[@josephinesalazar4762]

I disagree Ear trim is the worst place to go to for anything. They have horrible reviews but they are cheap so everyone goes to them. Our corso had a horrible infection with ear cropping from them not to mention his ears are uneven and one won’t stand. As for cherry eye , my 6 mo corso developed it out of no where last week. As on as I saw it I applied a warm compress and massaged the gland and then placed him in his crate to rest. Checked on him before bed and it was gone. Hasn’t come back since thank god

[@Madison_Sacha]

@@josephinesalazar4762 yikes I am sorry to hear that about your boy! I wish I tried what you did right away. I had no idea about the warm compress and massaging. It's been just over a month for my girl and her cherry eye won't go back in. :( Do you have a video on how to massage the eye that you could share? Thank you!
