title: [Superficial corneal edema].
abstract: A 4-year-old Miniature Pinscher was presented with bilateral cataracts which were surgically successfully removed. Severe bilateral superficial corneal oedema developed within 6 days. A bilateral superficial keratectomy and membrana nictitans flaps cured the disease. It was found that after the lentectomy the owner had used a hypertonic salt solution as an eyewash.
