 A
man found Bailey in the Ocala National Forest, where he apparently had been
abandoned.
He was blind from severe, untreated glaucoma that caused his eyes to
bulge out, and he couldn't even close one of his eyelids. The vet
estimated he is 4 or 5 years old, and said that it took a long time for
the glaucoma to get so bad. His vision might have saved if he had
received treatment.
After coming here, Bailey promptly had surgery to reduce the swelling
in his eyes. He's still blind and will be on eye medicine for the rest of his life,
but at least he's not in pain. He did
fine after the surgery and is getting around pretty well. He's active
and curious and likes to explore.
