Cloudy spots on my dogs eye
I have a very healthy 5 year old male boxer mix. About 4 months ago I noticed a small cloudy spot on on his right eye. We immediately took him to the vet. They stated that it was not ulcers, glacoma, or cataracs, but a mineral deposit. They suggested changing his food and checking the eye regularly. It has been 4 months and the spot has doubled in size and a spot is starting to develop in the left eye as well. The vet doesn't seem to have any better answers for me at this time. Is there anything that can be done to cure this or prevent the situation from getting worse??

This sounds like cataracts to me. Perhaps you need a second opinion. Maybe even a casual check with a vet at some of the larger pet stores. It certainly sounds time for stronger action.

I would agree with some of the answers, that it could be cataracs, however it could also be a fly that lays its eggs on the animals eyes and could it cause blindness if left untreated.
