Uveitis moon blindness cloudy eye
hello, i am looking for guidance with a horse that has what is called, uveitis, moon blindness, cloudy eye..She is a thorobred mare, 11 yrs old, dark chocolate brown. in good health. gets about 4 hours of pasture, diet of sweet feed and pellets, mixed grass hay. generally, she tends to keep to her self with other horses and people she doesnt know. she is friendly to people she knows but doesnt like to be touched much on the neck and shoulders, but lets me hold her head. unfortunately, the bank barn she is in has quite abit of mold,mildew,dust,cobwebs,etc in it. i did manage to get her moved to a stall with an open window in it so she could have fresh air.
the right eye began last winter getting a cloudy layer in it just below the
surface in what i believe is the uve, it looks like the cloudyness flows from
one side to the other at first, now it looks consistant mostly. at first it wasnt so bad. my father began treating with drugs from the vet. not sure, i
think antibiotic and steroid. after it came and went a few times, it seems to have come and is staying. her eye has been cloudy now for atleast 6 weeks. other than that,, had opthalmological vet test and she say the pressure in
the eye is high and could be turning into glaucoma. allopathy isnt sure what
the cause is, parasitic or injury. it appeared to be painful at first, sore, she would rub it when outside. with some tearing, etc. she was more anxious, grumpy.
I have tried the following remedys and have not really seen a change in the
eye. i administer by putting the pellets in a carrot. i have also simultaneously put them in her fresh bucket of water.i am not sure that
putting them in a carrot doesnt nullify the remedy.
thus far i have given:
silicea 30c 2 days twice a day
rhus tox 30c 2 days twice a day
thuja 12c 2 days once a day
sul 30 c 2 days once a day
perhaps the cloud is little bit less opaque, which is an improvement, but that is a maybe ,but she definitly seems calmer and happier to me.
i know have aconite and lycopodium, both 30c, that i am interested in trying.
i am thinking of using a proper dropper bottle with pellets, concussed, and
putting a bit inside her lower lip as administration. so any help is greatly appreciated, i also want to know about doing a combination of the remedys listed above or any other remedys as a course of action.
Thanks,

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
thus far there has not been improvement, i have also used belladonna 30c. the eye is clouded over. the horse seems to be bumping her head more. not because of limited vision in one eye, but for some other reason, she seems to bring her head to close the walls, and not be as careful with the placement with respect to doors and walls.

thank you for your reply,
she tends to be more of a loner, often standing away from another group of horses. she is a good natured horse. she doesnt like for people to touch here, especially from the neck back. lately, since i have been bringing here a carrot, she has been willing to let me hold her head and stroke here face and she seems to like it. i would expect she feels a little dejected from past events.
she was in a barn with a fair amount of mold,mildew in it, and since the uveitis we have moved her to a stall with an open window for fresh air. i think she like being outside as opposed to in doors. also, as much as i would like, i cant discontinue the allopathic treatment she is on, which i believe is a steroid.
thanks

Hi,
I had suffered from uveitis for many years and it reoccured every year. I used medicine prescribed by a medical specialist. Prednisone tablets and pred-forte drops. Both are cotisones and was very bad for the rest of my health.
I did some research and changed to coliodal silver drops for my eye on a constant basis, hourly and changed to a natural immune booster tablet, 3 tablets 3 times a day. It has worked very well and I have not had any attacck again.

thank you, ph1950 for your reply, i have heard a couple others mention the use of cs for uveitis, from your result, would you say the uveitis is bacterial or viral?
sameervermani, no, there is not adhesion or hypopion that i can see. the eye pressure is slightly elevated. i will try to get a photo of how it looks. it appears like a milky opaque layer just below the eye. at first, it looked like there was flow from outer part of the eye to the inner part of the eye of the milky material. now the eye has an opaque look. i dont really know what triggered the event, we surmise an injury or imo, some sort of viral or bacterial agent, i have heard one cause is leptosporosis.
thanks

Hi,
You can try dissolving some pellets of Hepar Sulph 30c (about 2-3 pellets should be enough) in her drinking water , and then whatever she drinks is fine.
Throw away the remaining solution after 1 day. i.e. Make sure she gets the remedy water for 1 day only.
No other homeopathic medicine is to be given with this.
After that just wait for 5 days and report back if you see any change.

Hi,
In my case it was caused by my imune systems reaction to what unfortunatelly we have not yet found what it is.
It is inflammation.
You have to remember that the method I used took some time.
Please let me know how the other treatments worked as I know other people who are suffering from time to time
