BVA Eye Testing

What is BVA Eye Testing?

BVA Eye Testing is a specialized diagnostic test designed to identify hereditary eye conditions that may affect your dog’s vision. Conducted by qualified veterinary professionals, this test involves a comprehensive eye examination to detect conditions like cataracts, retinal problems, and other genetic eye issues that can be passed on to offspring. The BVA Eye Scheme is recognized by the Kennel Club and is an essential part of breeding programs for many responsible breeders who aim to reduce the risk of hereditary eye disorders in their litters.

Why is Eye Testing Important?

Eye testing plays a crucial role in maintaining the health of your dog and ensuring that you are breeding responsibly. Some eye conditions can be inherited, meaning that breeding dogs without proper eye clearance may pass on these conditions to their puppies. By having your dog undergo BVA eye testing, you can: Ensure your dog is free from inherited eye disorders that could impact their quality of life. Reduce the risk of passing on hereditary eye conditions to offspring. Support responsible breeding practices to contribute to the overall health of the breed. Gain peace of mind that your dog is free from potential vision problems.
