Equine Medi-Lens Medical Eye Hood Left Eye

Equine Medi-Lens® Medical Eye Hood Left Eye distributed by Intrepid

This hood protects your horse’s eye during medication and healing. Horse's eyelids are frequently torn by wire, ripped by bites from other horses, shredded by a kick to the eye or become infected by scratches and other means.  Taking into consideration the great importance of conserving the conformation of the eyelids, so that the drainage of the tears is preserved, all eyelid injuries should be taken seriously.

Medication of a damaged eye or eyelid can be difficult. The vet will sometimes sew into the eyelid a very fine irrigating cannula which is placed through the upper lid and attached across the top of the head and down the neck. The Medi-Lens Eye Hood will keep this medication line in place.

Using this system, antibiotics and other medications can be flushed into the eye by pumping them from a syringe at the horse's withers, avoiding all the restraint and wrestling necessary to insert cream or ointment into a painful eye in an adult horse.

Features:

• Protects your horse’s eye during medication and healing
• Tinted, semi-rigid 3/4 goggle on left side
• Constructed of stretch, breathable mesh for comfort and an easy fit
