Answer #3

Your dog may have Cateracts. If the eyes are cloudy with a bluish hue/tinge,then Cateracts are the most likey cause. Cateracts do result in blindness. Cateracts can be removed,but it all depends on the age/health of your dog. Your vet will be able to advise you further. Good luck.

Answer #4

Cloudy Eyes, are a symptom of blindness. The best thing to do, is to have a vet examine your dogs eyes, and he will be the only one who can really tell you for sure, if your dog is going blind or not. I really hope he/she is not going blind and that whatever is causing the cloudy eyes can be treated. Good Luck!

Cloudiness in a god’s eyes isn’t always a symptom of blindness. Here’s a website to give you more info. You should take the dog to a vet for professional care. http://www.petplace.com/dogs/cloudy-eye-in-dogs/page1.aspx

Answer #10

I have a dog that went blind and the symptoms were cloudy eyes. If you have an elderly dog then they are most likely going blind. Your vet may give you some medication to slow it down. Unfortuneatly, there is probably no way to stop it. If you do find out it is going blind, make sure it doesn’t go by any railing. My dog died from falling off our balcony because she was blind. If you keep him/her safe from any heights or pointy objects then they will be fine.
