I have a yearling filly who damaged her eyelid (no injury to the eye itself - we had it checked at that time) about 2 months ago and had a skin tag on it when it healed. The vet had thought it would heal fine but then it was to late. Anyway - she has had no problems with the eye itself then last weekend her eye began to water (a lot). Her eye was clear with no signs of inflamation or infection - it just was very watery. We took her to the vet first thing monday. The vet and I originally thought the problem must be the skin tag so they did surgery on her eyelid. They also stained her eye for problems and flushed her tear ducts - nothing has stopped the watering. Today they tested her for Gloucoma - high for a horse should be around 28 (that was what I was told). Her eye ranged from 33 to 35.
Has anyone else had a similiar problem and what was the results and treatment.
Thanks for any and all input.
