Patients with ophthalmic disease may require surgery to correct adnexal disease such as entropion, corneal disease, intraocular disease such as cataract, or to remove the globe (enucleation). Patients vary from young, healthy animals with ocular injury or congenital disease to geriatric patients, which may have significant comorbidities. This chapter looks at factors to consider when planning anaesthesia for an ophthalmic patient, ocular physiology relevant to anaesthesia, ocular pain and systemic effects of ophthalmic drugs.
