Dogs suffering from conjunctivitis, glaucoma, or other eye conditions may need sunglasses every time they go outside. They\u2019re even handy for dock diving and boating.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2 id=\"can-dogs-wear-prescription-glasses\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Can_dogs_wear_prescription_glasses\"><\/span>Can dogs wear prescription glasses?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>But now veterinary-approved canine corrective lenses can give many dogs the gift of sight again. Dr. Roni DiLullo, president of the Doggles company, says the glasses are made to order with any prescription obtained from a veterinary ophthalmologist.

Is your dog suffering too much? The simple answer is no. Veterinarians tell us that dogs adapt very well to losing their vision.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"is-it-bad-to-put-glasses-on-a-dog\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Is_it_bad_to_put_glasses_on_a_dog\"><\/span>Is it bad to put glasses on a dog?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Humans wear sunglasses to reduce ultraviolet exposure\u2014which can lead to age-related cataracts\u2014to our eyes. Dogs, on the other hand, have a shorter life span and therefore don\u2019t develop UV light damage in their eyes.\u00a0 In this case, English recommends Doggles, or dog goggles designed for your canine companion.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"can-a-dog-see-tv\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Can_a_dog_see_TV\"><\/span>Can a dog see TV?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Domestic dogs can perceive images on television similarly to the way we do, and they are intelligent enough to recognize onscreen images of animals as they would in real life\u2014even animals they\u2019ve never seen before\u2014and to recognize TV dog sounds, like barking.<\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: left;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/a-WXSFdfTTE\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<h2 id=\"do-dogs-need-eye-protection-from-the-sun\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Do_dogs_need_eye_protection_from_the_sun\"><\/span>Do dogs need eye protection from the sun?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Like humans, we need to consider eye protection for dogs because harmful UV rays from the sun can cause eye conditions like pannus, sunburn around the eyes, and cataracts.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"do-blue-eyed-dogs-have-vision-problems\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Do_blue_eyed_dogs_have_vision_problems\"><\/span>Do blue eyed dogs have vision problems?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>In some dog breeds, blue eyes can be an indicator of possible vision defects. However, they do not necessarily mean a blue-eyed dog will eventually go blind.
