“…Abnormalities of the retinal vasculature are seen rarely in mice and rats; however, vessel size commonly may be altered with retinal degeneration and in spontaneously hypertensive rats. Hypertensive rats can develop associated retinal hemorrhage [9,57]. Papilledema also can be seen in hypertensive rats [9,57].…”

As mice and rats become more popular as pets, it is expected that they will be seen more often in general veterinary practice. It is hoped that this increase in doctor visits will be associated with an increased number of clinical reports that describe ophthalmic disorders observed in these species. Until then, clinicians must rely on extrapolation and cautious application of data that are generated in laboratory strains.

Examination of the eye in experiments designed to test the toxicity of drugs or chemicals is of considerable importance and the investigator must have a clear idea of the spontaneous eye changes he can expect in the test species. We have attempted to review the literature relating to commonly used laboratory animals--the rat, mouse, and dog as well as the hamster--but as there is still only a handful of workers that publish their findings, the literature is not fully comprehensive. Our own unpublished data have been used to try and provide a more complete account. There is, therefore, a considerable need for further work in this area and, in the future, newer techniques such as electron microscopy and histochemistry can help us in the understanding of the pathogenesis of age-related changes in laboratory animals.
