Phacoemulsification for Cataract Secondary to Persistent Hyperplastic Tunica Vasculosa Lentis and Peristent Hyperplastic Primary Vitreous in a Welsh Corgi

A 7-month-old Cardigan Welsh Corgi was presented with rapid cataract formation. Slit lamp biomicroscopy revealed mature cataract in the left eye. Ultrasonography revealed a microphakic lens and the presence of a cord-like structure extending from the posterior lens to the optic disc. On the basis of...
