Öğe Evaluation of the eye diseases seen in Loggerhead Sea turtle (Caretta caretta)(Ecole Nationale Veterinaire Toulouse, 2014) Isler, C. T.; Altug, M.; Cantekin, Z.; Ozsoy, S. Y.; Yurtal, Z.; Deveci, M. Z. Y.Fifteen Loggerhead turtles (Caretta caretta) admitted to the First Aid, Treatment and Rescue Application and Research Centre between 2011 and 2012 underwent systematic ophthalmological examination. They have got injury of traumaticum in its cranium. Of these animals, six presented various ocular problems in a total of nine eyes: two catarrhal conjunctivitis, two purulent conjunctivitis, three keratitis, two blepharitis and two corneal lacerations. From macroscopic examination, these ocular problems were seen to have been associated with clinical signs such as chemosis, exophthalmos, blepharospasm, mucopurulent discharge, conjunctival hyperemia and diffuse corneal opacity. Histopathological examination also detected an infiltration of macrophages, plasma cells and lymphocytes, mainly mononuclear cells in corneal stroma. Aeromonas spp. was isolated in eye swabs of the purulent conjunctivitis cases. All cases successfully recovered following topical and parenteral antibiotic treatments combined with systemic vitamin A and balanced fluid-electrolyte administrations.
