When I began taking my plight to various alternative lists, I found there are treatments abound! And most are very simplistic. If only there were enough hours in a day to create a website covering these methods, with scientific and anecdotal evidence, for the others that are searching... My precious girl lost her other eye to glaucoma. I searched, begged and pleaded for an alternative option, but general consensus was that there isn't one, and we settled on eneucleation to eliminate the pain, and the need for drugs. Between her diagnosis of glaucoma, and the removal of the eye, the cataract in her *good* eye rendered her blind. She was pronounced a good candidate for cataract surgery (at age 12!), but at $1000 it simply isn't a possibility. I so appreciate hearing these testimonies. They give me hope, and good ideas. Thanks guys! -Raine with Chino the one-eyed wonder dog http://www.dogster.com/?87580
