. Bulletin : report of Agricultural Experiment Station, Agricultural and Mechanical College, Auburn, Ala. Agriculture -- Alabama. 43 Id examiniDg tbe eye for a cataract one may readily see a gray, a bluish gray, a greenish yellow, a brown or a pearl white reflection in the pupillary opening; the form (star- shaped, cloudy, fog-like, feathery, streaked, or scattered dots, ball-shaped, etc.,) can be determined if the opacity be sufli- ciently developed. The exact location and form or the small, beginning white speck may not be visible to the observers unaided eye, especially out in the clear sunshine or when the srround is covered with snow. The animal should be placed so that the light falls upon the affected eye from a clear window or an open door in front of the animal. The observer then looks into the pupillary opening, standing in in front or to one side; it is well to observe the eye from various points of view. If the pupil is contracted or too small to admit of sufficient examination, a few drops of a solution of atropine (1 gr. atropine to 1 ounce of water) may be put into the eye to expand the pupil. The lens may, also, be examined by placing the animal in a dark room and illuminating the eye with a candle, or a candle and a double convex lens, or with a candle and a small concave mirror (see methods of examining the eye).. Fig. 13. Luxuration (dislocation) of the opaque lens into aqueous chamber; the lens lies in front of the iris, almost completely obstructing the passage of the light through the pupil. Treatment of cataracts in domestic animals consists chiefly in prevention. The reducing of all inflammations of the eye, the prevention of periodic opthalmia, keeping tbe sur-.
