Brachycephalic ocular syndrome is a syndrome that occurs in breeds of dogs and cats with a flat face. These breeds present with many anatomical complications such as macro palpebral fissure, lagophthalmic, reduced corneal sensation, medial entropion, and poor tear films, which do not give sufficient protection to the eye hence why this syndrome usually appears.

Will Automation Change the Role of the Veterinary Receptionist? Our speakers for this discussion-based webinar were Alison Lambert, Kate McMorris, and Julien Renard.

Ron Ofri is one of the most prolific of Webinar Vet presenters. I counted at least 31 previous webinars in recent years (there may be some I have missed), and there are at least three scheduled for next year. For any colleague interested in veterinary ophthalmology, and those in training, it would be worth viewing all his webinars as they represent the results of Ron’s many years at the forefront of this discipline.

Camilla is a 2006 Copenhagen Veterinary College graduate, and I am used to Danish colleagues speaking fluent English. Even so I was particularly impressed by Camilla’s command over our language, but not surprising when she revealed in her CV that she grew up on an ostrich farm in Essex, with both parents being Danish.
We asked several people from our community if they could send us their tips on how they practice mental health in their workplaces. Below you can find practical ways to apply mental health and try to create a healthier environment with your colleagues.

Owen’s CV is interesting in that unlike many specialists he did a full nine years in practice, after graduating from Cambridge, before embarking on a residency at the RVC. With the qualifications listed above along with his lengthy spell in first opinion practice, he is very well qualified to speak on his topic with first opinion clinicians in mind. The webinar is an excellent comprehensive update on feline lymphoma including full details on the diagnosis and treatment, but with suggestions where compromises are possible to reduce costs.
