For those that don't know, Lil Mitzi is my 7 yr jumper Appaloosa mare who recently contracted glaucoma in her left eye. My veterinarian and I stay up around-the-clock to treat it. She has been learning to see without her left eye, and has been GREAT about it, and I basically decided to ride her to see how she did - and it went flawlessly. I thought she'd go completely blind, however there is no trace of the disease in her right eye. So, I think, there is hope that she can still compete in shows even with her bad eye - and we might not lose her other eye at all.
